Most of all, we're glad the group enjoyed the cake, but we're sorry to hear about the trouble cutting the torte. It sounds like your filling might have needed to be just a bit thicker to hold up to cutting. When we run into this trouble with any cake, it can sometimes help to briefly chill it, which allows it to set a bit more before continuing to cut. Scoring the top of the cake before filling can also help to prep a delicate cake for cutting. Mollie@KAF
