A curved or circular cutting blade with a handle that serves as a cutting tool to cleanly slice pizza, lasagna, flatbread crusts, brownies, and other similar foods into smaller pieces. This kitchen utensil is typically made of stainless steel but there are also composite materials used to make the Pizza Cutters as well. The most common forms of the Pizza Cutters are either the curved Cutter or the wheeled Cutter. Both are designed to slice through the food with only minimal damage to the toppings or top layer. The curved blade variety of Cutter can also be used to chop and dice a variety of different foods such as vegetables. After foods have been cut into smaller pieces, the curved Cutter can also serve as a food scoop to gather and transfer the bits of cut food into a bowl or to another preparation surface.
