Cut the cake ( doesnt matter what shape it is) this way:
1) first cut half
2) second cut perpendicular to first cut, just cut like a
cross(i.e , the plus or add sign in maths)
3) Since all cakes have thickness, we can cut it through
middle, horizontally
This way we get four pieces above and four pieces below
making it eight pieces.
