Cake is a yummy creation that people all around the world love to eat. It started a long time ago around 5,000 years back in ancient Egypt, but it was more or less like bread, sweetened with honey, and a little dry compared to the cakes we know today. The ancient Greeks and Romans improved it by using goat cheese and fruits thus making it a hit in their dinner parties.
The name ‘cake’ comes from the Old Norse word ‘kaka’, which means a baked flour confection. Today, cakes are baked all over the world and are a necessary part of nearly all celebrations. Birthdays, weddings, graduations and anniversaries, all require that a special cake be made to mark the occasion.
Cakes are generally made from a mixture of flour, sugar, eggs, and butter or oil, with some variety including liquid (either milk, water or fruit juice) and leavening agents (like baking powder or yeast) to make the cake rise and become fluffy. You can also add other ingredients like cocoa or vanilla to give the cake a particular flavor, and a lot of us like to add icing or decorations on top to make it look pretty.
Cakes can come in all sorts of different shapes and sizes. Whether they’re in the shape of a giant princess castle or just a simple chocolate loaf, they’re sure to bring a smile to anyone’s face. Eating cake is an experience everyone enjoys, bringing an extra sprinkle of joy to any event.
