Tip #1

- Cut cheesecake using wet sharp thin bladed knife and not serrated knife which can form clumps around the ridged edges. Dip knife in hot water and wipe dry before each cut. A piece of dental floss can also be used. Stretch dental floss between hands and press down firmly through cheesecake.

Tip #2

- Rinse fresh rhubarb stalks to remove dirt. Trim off ends and remove any stringy pieces before slicing.
