In the cake cutting problem, $n\ge2$ players want to cut a cake into $n$ pieces so that every player gets a ``fair'' share of the cake by his own measure. We describe a protocol with $n-1$~cuts in which each player can enforce to get a share of at least~$1/(2n-2)$. Moreover we show that no protocol with $n-1$~cuts can guarantee a better fraction.
