Gooooood Morning Riddle Masters!

As the grandkids would say, TGIF! (Thank Goodness It's Friday!). We love our Friday's because we get to give you lot the third and final riddle of the week, so let's get straight into it, shall we?

Baker, Fred Floury has invented a method of slicing a pancake into eight equal pieces, with only three straight knife strokes. How does he do it?

We think this one is a head scratcher, but let's see how you folks go eh?

As always, a 'spoiler' button will hide yours and others' answers. To reveal those answers simply click the 'spoiler' button, but do your best not to cheat! Even just trying to crack the riddle is good for your brain!

So good luck Ladies and Gents, and Happy Riddle-ing!
He cuts the pancake in half puts them on top of each other. He then cuts them in half giving him 4 pieces. Putting them on top of each other he makes a third cut giving him eight pieces of pancake.

Down the centre of the cake (vertically) leaving two equal halves.
Across the centre of the cake (horizontally) leaving four equal slices. Place the four pieces on top of each other and then cut through the middle edge of the cake slicing all four of the pieces in equal halves, leaving eight equal slices.

Cut thru middle horizontally, keep halves together, cut once N-S, and once E-W. 3 cuts = 8 pieces equal size.
