Reply to comment by brianundies in LPT: When bringing a dessert to a function, cut a small slice off before you put it out. by arkobsessed
I don’t know. People see what people bring in and I would definitely judge someone if they brought something that already looks eaten. I would think “are they just bringing left overs from a night before?”
It’s better just to be the first one to take a slice after you put it out.

My family always took the “do both” approach but like you said. Bring it all pristine and presentable. Then once it’s set out, someone without even asking just starts cutting a bunch of slices and putting a few on plates. Then after that, you’re free to cut if there aren’t any precut ones.
Never a problem with untouched desserts there. I also learned they won’t go for desserts unless it’s in tiny portions. Because “I’m on a diet but I want to try a little bit.” Ever since learning that lesson the hard way, I bake things bite sized.
