Turn an "ordinary" music cake into a proper wow-factor centrepiece in minutes.

New! Curved Piano Key Cutters

For years, Dawn wanted to add piano keys to a cake board — it seems the perfect finishing touch for a music-themed cake — but she was always working with a round cake and round board, so it was impossible because of the shape. Not any more! We've done the "math" and created the perfect curved keyboard cutter for your cake boards.

The white cutter is for the white keys — it cuts out a section of keys with a perfect indent where all the keys should be. You'll only need 5 of these to decorate the whole way around your board.

The black cutter then cuts out all the black keys for each section — cut out 5 black key sets and simply add them to the white keys in the indentations already marked out for you.

The cutter is based on working with an 8" round cake on a 12" round board, as this gives enough space for the keys to look visually impactful — and we felt this was the most useful size for your projects.

Why You'll Love Them

• Ready to use: Simply cut your sugarpaste, position around your board, and add the black keys — no measuring, no guessing, no fiddly templates.
• Perfect fit: The curved design is mathematically calculated to fit neatly around a 12" round board with an 8" cake — 5 sections and you're done.
• Professional finish: The pre-marked indentations show you exactly where the black keys go, so your piano keyboard looks spot on every time.
• Budget-friendly: Prices can fit well within a customer's budget and won't break the bank for hobby bakers.
• Allows you to make money: Customers' budgets don't allow for hours of your time making handmade edible piano keys — this solution brings wow factor with the least amount of effort.
• Suitable for all skill levels: Even the most novice cake decorator can produce a stunning music cake with these easy-to-use cutters.
