Cake is a flour confection made from flour, sugar, and other ingredients, and is usually baked. Cake is often served as a celebratory dish on ceremonial occasions, such as weddings, anniversaries, and birthdays. The term “cake” has a long history. The word itself is of Viking origin, from the Old Norse word “kaka”.

It was baked using flour mixed with eggs, milk, nuts, and honey. They also had a cake called “satura”, which was a flat heavy cake. During the Roman period, the name for cake became “placenta” which was derived from the Greek term. A placenta was baked on a pastry base or inside a pastry case.
