I don't think the section's a bad idea, but it seems way too terse, thrown in haphazardly into an otherwise articulate article. Also, is it just me, or does that tone ("should be") seem to go against NPOV? --[[User:JPM|JPM]] 07:01, 3 Jan 2006

Cake is also a fictional drug, made up by controversial UK satirist [[Chris Morris]], though probably not worth mentioning on this page. --?

Now that I think about it, cake has other meanings too.  I'm going to create a disambiguation page.  If you don't see me do it in the next few hours, I probably forgot.  Someone else do it :) --[[User:Geekybroad|Kat]] 13:51, 18 December 2005 (UTC)

==Cake recipes==
I won't be nearly as bold as to say something like, "Fie on Delia Smith, nobody cares what that woman is cooking," but I -will- be as bold as to remove that bit about her simple cake recipe. The Wikipedia is NOT a bloody cookbook (although I will be stealing that handy bit of information for cheating at any cooking classes I may or may not ever take). Plus, it may very well be copyrighted information, e.g., in one of her cookbooks. [[User:Cernen|Cernen]] 12:43, 13 December 2005 (UTC)

:Agreed, for the reasons you describe.  However, if it was a ''standard'' and ''well-known'' in cake-making, I could see including it... as long as it was verfiable and didn't link gratuitously.--[[User:Geekybroad|Kat]] 13:51, 18 December 2005 (UTC)

:I really don't see anything wrong about having a sample recipe on a page about a food. While some people check out this page to learn the academic science and history behind a cake, others may simply want to know how a cake is made (the process of which is extremely ambiguous on the current page). Copyrighted material should be respected, yet the basic cake-making procedure is NOT patented. An encyclopedia should not only be informative but practical as well.[[User:Chevrox|Chevrox]] 06:18, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

:As a matter of copyright law, a recipe cannot be copyrighted because it is a set of instructions. Descriptive text in a cookbook, however, is copyrightable, e.g. the history of a particular cake or how the author liked to bake the cake with her grandmother.

::It looks like a napoleon somewhat, which isn't a cake. But I'm not certain. [[user:lucashoal|Luca]] 8:21 March 10, 2006 (EST)

I'd be willing to bet that that's a napoleon, the ising on the top is in a traditional napoleon design. Also, it looks very much like the standard layers of puff pastry and custard. In fact the only thing abgout it that's not napoleon-like is the fact that it appears to be wedge shaped rather than square. [[User:Nom Déplûmes|Nom Déplûmes]] 17:22, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

== History of the Cake ==
It seems like a really good idea to have a section on the history of this food, and a section on different costumes. You would be surprised on how many types of cakes are there in different regions of earth. Upon opening this article my first thought was to look for the section on history. As I am all ways fascinated by the fact certain foods where invented or made. For example bread, someone just decided to take some corn, crush it, mix it with water and yeast, let it sit. Ugh... pasty hm, lets bake it. Cool. Now lets add sugar.
Um, was drifting there. So I challenge us all to edit a good section on the history and tradition of cake. Anyone hungry for some cake now?

==Cake==
I put that a common use of cake is to put it in someone's face for humour. This is a common practice and is different than putting other foods in someone's face. For this reason it is noteworthy. It has been removed for reasons which seem to change. Often in weddings during the cake cutting the bride and groom will put a little cake on each others faces. This would not be considered the same if they were to use any other part of the wedding dinner. It is not like I am just naming places you can shove a cake on someone's body. This is a real thing.

== Lead image ==

{{User|Georgelazenby}}, please don't take offence at my having moved [[:Image:StrawberryCake.jpg|your image]] and supplied and inserted a lead image that is significantly more illustrative. Your image shows a whole cake — a very pretty one, to be sure, certainly worthy of inclusion in the article — but we know it's a cake under the frosting only because the caption says so. Because the cake in my image has a slice out of it, we can see the exterior ''and'' the interior. We can actually see the ''cake'' part of the cake in my image, and that makes it a better selection for the article's lead image. That doesn't mean my image is objectively better or yours is objectively worse, just that mine's more appropriate as a lead image. Please keep in mind that it's neither coöperative nor [[WP:OWN|appropriate]] to reinsert your own image just to have ''your'' image at the top of an article.

== Edit request from Lkredhat, 15 May 2011 ==

{{edit semi-protected|answered=yes}}
<!-- Begin request -->
Description of cake flour (Section 4) is incorrect, as are several of the footnotes.  

The incorrect sentence is:
''
''However, cake flour is generally not considered mandatory for good results, and its effect on the cake's texture can readily be simulated by adding corn starch and/or baking soda to all-purpose flour.[2][3][4][5][6]'''' 

Here is my suggestion which I think is closer to being correct:
''
''Many recipes are designed to be successfully made with all-purpose flour rather than cake flour.  However, if cake flour is called for, a good substitute can be made by replacing a small percentage of all-purpose flour with cornstarch.'''' Footnote should be Joy of Cooking, using the link I post below.

Here's the explanation--
z  <small><span class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Lkredhat|Lkredhat]] ([[User talk:Lkredhat|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Lkredhat|contribs]]) 09:56, 15 May 2011 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
There are two confusions here: baking soda is not baking powder; and self-rising flour is not the same as cake flour or a cake flour substitute.  

Self-rising flour--which is widely used in the South for baking--is made by adding baking powder to flour.  Several of the footnotes connect to links (mostly on cooking.com) that describe flour with baking powder added as "cake flour."  It is actually a homemade self-rising flour.

Cake flour is in fact a low-gluten, high starch flour with no leavening ingredients added to the flour itself.  Therefore, its effect is simulated by replacing a small amount of the all-purpose flour in a cake recipe with cornstarch, which has no gluten.  

 My source is Joy of Cooking, page 547:

[http://books.google.com/books?id=C4_5MCUd6ucC&pg=PA547&lpg=PA547&dq=%22joy+of+cooking%22+what+is+cake+flour&source=bl&ots=2d4VJzsGVU&sig=NbwsExasfgqruDTK4eK9qk6N9_Y&hl=en&ei=lJXPTe68LY66sQO4k4W8Cw&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=7&ved=0CD8Q6AEwBg#v=onepage&q&f=false Joy of Cooking, chapter on Know Your Ingredients--Flour]

But you could easily find the same information in a Marion Cunningham book, or probably even Fannie Farmer.  

I realize this is a discussion of cake flour, rather than cake itself, but I would hate to see someone make "cake flour" using one of the links, and then using the result to bake a cake.  Yeech!

BTW, I believe Joy of Cooking also references 3 basic types of cake: butter cakes (leavened with baking powder and possibly with egg whites), sponge and angel cakes (leavened with egg whites rather than chemical leaveners), and chiffon cakes (leavened with whipped eggs whites with oil added).  They also have a section for "quick cakes" (generally made in 1 bowl without extensive beating) and tortes (often essentially sponge cakes with ground nuts rather than flour).  But it is true that it can be hard to define cakes since there's an exception to almost all definitions!

Okay, back to the kitchen

== Cake as food ==

I would generally consider cake a non-food, thus I believe starting by saying it is a type of food is misleading. It should simply start by saying: "Cake is typically a sweet, baked dessert. Cakes normally contain a combination of flour, sugar, eggs, and butter  or oil......".

Nutritionally speaking, a product comprised largely of sugar and fat cannot be considered food.

I have not made the change myself as I feel others may like to discuss, as my opinion may be overridden by the majority.

:-)

Cheers!

:This seems like a bizarre notion - the definition of food is, according to Wikipedia, "...any substance or materials[1] eaten or drunk to provide nutritional support for the body or for pleasure".

I do not know what gives you the idea that cake is not food, unless your cakes are a type of [[medicine]]. They are definitely not  drinks and they are,for the main part edible -
ergo,they are food. [[User:ACEOREVIVED|ACEOREVIVED]] ([[User talk:ACEOREVIVED|talk]]) 19:46, 18 July 2011 (UTC)

Can I also say that cakes may not be, nutritionally speaking,  largely fat and  sugar. I expect that there are some cakes -  such as [[tea cakes]]  - where the prime
[[carbohydrate]] would be [[starch]], not [[sugar]], and that different types of cakes would have many other ingredients in them - such as [[currants]],[[sultanas]], [[raisins]], [[ginger]], [[fruit]] such as [[apples]] or  - in the case of [[carrot cake]]  - [[carrots]].

==Popularity of different types of cakes==

The [[Radio  Times]] for March 12-18 2011 published a list of the most popular cakes (according to a survey) in the [[United Kingdom]].The ten most popular cakes were, in order:

1. [[Carrot cake]]
2. [[Chocolate cake]]
3. Lemon drizzle cakeI 
4. [[Fruit cake]]
5.  [[Victoria  sponge]]
6. Coffee and walnut cake
7.[[ Coffee cake]]
8. [[Brownies]]
9. [[Ginger cake]]
10. Chocolate fudge cake

This information might be useful  to put in a section on the popularity of different cake  types. [[User:ACEOREVIVED|ACEOREVIVED]] ([[User talk:ACEOREVIVED|talk]]) 19:40, 18 July 2011 (UTC)

Thinking about it, it would probably be better if the information went in [[List of cakes]]. [[User:ACEOREVIVED|ACEOREVIVED]] ([[User talk:ACEOREVIVED|talk]]) 18:53, 18 August 2011 (UTC)

==Final sentence of first paragraph==

I think that the first paragraph of this article is quite good save for one thing  - its final sentence. Saying that cake making is no longer complicated and that now, even the most amateur of bakers can bake a cake to me sounded as if it is making Wikipedia less an encyclopaedia than a how-to manual, a soapbox or even an advert  - thing that go against what Wikipedia is not (see
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:What_Wikipedia_is_not). I shall appreciate feedback from others, but I wondered whether the style could be tamed a little. [[User:ACEOREVIVED|ACEOREVIVED]] ([[User talk:ACEOREVIVED|talk]]) 13:18, 4 October 2011 (UTC)

==Section on "History" needs a good edit==

The section on "History" needs a very thorough tidy up. For a start, it says that differences between "pizza" and "pizza" are easy to find  - what planet was the person who wrote that living on? In any case, pizza is not a cake. This seemed to have little to do with the history, and I attempted to tidy this section myself with some information from:

http://www.devlaming.co.za/the-history-of-cakes

which is much better source of information on the history of cakes. [[User:ACEOREVIVED|ACEOREVIVED]] ([[User talk:ACEOREVIVED|talk]]) 20:45, 2 November 2011 (UTC)

Many thanks,  I had just seen that there had been a lot of edits to the section on history tonight (All Soul's Day 2011) so that is a good sign  - at least we are not going to be in for the nonsensical statements about pizza being easy to confuse with pizza any more!

http://www.foodtimeline.org/foodcakes.html  [[User:ACEOREVIVED|ACEOREVIVED]] ([[User talk:ACEOREVIVED|talk]]) 00:17, 16 November 2011 (UTC)

I just thought I would give a little more information to the history section, based on this website:

http://www.thenibble.com/reviews/main/cookies/cakes/glossary.asp

However, I have just noticed that contradicts what is already in the article. The website I quoted there claims that the technique of whipping eggs to make cakes rise originated in the nineteenth century, but the article also says that this technique goes back to the Renaissance, and is of Spanish origin. If any one knows which is correct, I shall be grateful if she or he could sort this one out.

== [[Madeira cake]] ==
{{edit semi-protected|answered=yes}}
Towards the bottom, we say that special occasion cakes are often rich fruit cakes or madeira cake (which is true), but then the brackets say that madeira cake is a fatless sponge (this is not true). The type of madeira cake which is used as a special occasion cake, in place of a rich fruit cake, is like a [[victoria sponge]] recipe but with more flour (so it is denser and firmer) and, properly speaking, lemon zest. A fatless sponge would be totally unsuitable, as it is light and squishy. The easiest solution is just to take that parenthetical statement out, since ''madeira cake'' is wikilinked.

==[['Of Viking Origin']]==

It's a rather bizarre statement to say that the word cake is of 'Viking' origin. Viking does not refer to a group of people, or a language.  It was essentially a profession, and not an ordinary one at that. A more neutral word should be use, like Nordic, or Scandinavian.  <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/50.96.88.65|50.96.88.65]] ([[User talk:50.96.88.65|talk]]) 04:03, 27 May 2013 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:Unsigned IP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

I agree and so does, apparently, Alton Brown who could easily be considered an expert in this field. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ycxKlc4aYy0 Starting at around 1:35 he explains how a cheesecake is not a cake at all but a custard or a custard pie. [[Special:Contributions/66.57.255.226|66.57.255.226]] ([[User talk:66.57.255.226|talk]]) 03:26, 7 April 2010 (UTC)

I agree. Rose Levy Beranbaum also discusses this in The Cake Bible.[[User:Patrickcolvin|Patrick Colvin]] ([[User talk:Patrickcolvin|talk]]) 06:06, 26 May 2010 (UTC)



On the discussion page for cheesecake, the user Whothehey says "Cheesecake is not custard pie - it is a type of torte. A torte is a rich cake made with many eggs and often without flour, and will often be layered or encrusted with crumbs of one sort or another, or nuts. Cheesecake is properly made in a springform pan, and if baked properly will not crack, and a water bath should not be necessary. If what you think of as cheesecake is more like a custard pie, then it's not cheesecake. The definition of "cake" is not "a chemically risen flour-based dessert." That's only one type of cake. A torte is not a pie." [[User:Kazimir9|Kazimir9]] ([[User talk:Kazimir9|talk]]) 06:11, 3 April 2011 (UTC)
:"Torte" is a word with many definitions. Linzertorte does not fit Whothehey's definition. Nor does Dobos Torte. A cheesecake is a custard pie by every useful definition. [[User:Patrickcolvin|Patrick Colvin]] ([[User talk:Patrickcolvin|talk]]) 17:32, 5 April 2011 (UTC)

== Cake as a dessert? ==

The article had cake as a dessert, which I thought was odd. Certainly you could press a cake into service as a dessert if you didn't have any actual pudding, but usually only a gateau type cake would pass muster in that capacity. Cake is usually eaten at tea or on its own, surely?
I mention this because my edit was reverted by someone who thought I was kidding her about it, so I thought I might canvas opinions (not take a vote!)[[User:DavidFarmbrough|DavidFarmbrough]] ([[User talk:DavidFarmbrough|talk]]) 19:26, 14 February 2015 (UTC).
:[[User:DavidFarmbrough|David]] I'm always open to persuasion, and I'm glad you opened a discussion here. When I saw your edit summary I could hardly believe it. First of all, in the U.S., there is no "at tea" such as the break at around four in the afternoon in England. Second, cake is just one of many sweet things that people might select or serve as a dessert in the U.S., and there are many kinds of cake (the word "gateau" is simply not heard here). In the U.S., pudding (chocolate, vanilla, butterscotch, rice) is also a dessert. Perhaps by pudding you are thinking of something else, and perhaps we are dealing with a culinary/cultural difference here. - [[User:CorinneSD|CorinneSD]] ([[User talk:CorinneSD|talk]]) 23:08, 14 February 2015 (UTC)

== Major edit of intro ==

I just made some significant edits of the intro, which made a lot of unsupported and to me odd claims. My claims are also unsupported, but I have tried to reduce the claim 'footprint' and address some issues raised in talk sections above.

An example is the opening claim that cake is a bread or bread-like food, which was challenged above and received the response that a change would require supporting references. But the original claim was also unsupported or at least unelaborated. The basis of the original claim seems to be that cake is typically a baked good based on flour. In which case perhaps the opening sentence should be that cake is a baked good based on flour, rather than "cake is type of bread"?

Another example is a sentence about how modern equipment makes even elaborate cake means 'even the amateur cook' can make cakes. At first I just changed the 'magazine-y' tone of this to say that modern appliances and equipment make many aspects of cake making easier. But then modern appliances and equipment make pretty much everything easier, does it need to be said?

I think the intro definitely needed major changes, and so I just decided to be "bold". No doubt there'll be reversions and objections and additions - great! [[User:Faff296|Faff296]] ([[User talk:Faff296|talk]]) 08:18, 20 April 2015 (UTC)

:I did return the last para since considering how much easier electric mixers have made cake making it seems reasonable.

BTW, good for you to give a go at some changes! [[User:Gandydancer|Gandydancer]] ([[User talk:Gandydancer|talk]]) 10:54, 20 April 2015 (UTC)

== Significant edit request ==

I am completely unsure how to go about suggesting an edit, so I'll just give it a whirl here. Feel free to message me with pointers, they would be appreciated.

I think the intro to the History section is kind of odd. The first sentence is clear enough; however, "cake" is not a 'term', it's the actual word used for the object(s). A term is not necessarily the primary word used for something but rather a secondary referent. This is weak beer though, just sounds over-analytical to me. I agree with one of the posters above about the Viking reference as well. Perhaps a better construction of this second sentence could be "The word itself is of Nordic origin, from the Old Norse word "kaka". Additionally, whilst I can't find evidence for this, I am unsure about this claim; the Old Norse word "kaka" has contemporary cognates in the other Germanic dialects, so I find it a little questionable as to whether we can attribute it to just one of them, in this case, Old Norse. It is certainly possible though, and this is also a trifle in my opinion. Maybe to be slightly more general, it could read "The word is believed to derive from the West Germanic *kokon, possibly related to Latin coquere. Cognates in other Germanic languages include German Kuchen, Dutch koek, and Norwegian kake." This sentence can be cited then at http://www.etymonline.com/index.php?term=cake.

The second paragraph is fine as it is. It's the third paragraph I have a few issues with:
"The Greeks invented beer as a leavener, frying fritters in olive oil, and cheesecakes using goat's milk.[4] In ancient Rome, basic bread dough was sometimes enriched with butter, eggs, and honey, which produced a sweet and cake-like baked good.[3] Latin poet Ovid refers to the birthday of him and his brother with party and cake in his first book of exile, Tristia.[5]"

The first sentence makes no sense in this context. It's more a statement of historic fact, but has no relationship to cake. If the focus of this sentence is on "frying fritters" and "cheesecakes" then fair enough, but the lead-in made me read the sentence five times, asking myself each time what the heck beer as a leavener had to do with anything. For some reason, in my ear, leading this sentence as "It is known (or documented) that Greeks used beer as a leavener..." The second sentence is fine as written. The third sentence is written in an over-formal manner, making it read oddly; and there is no such thing as a Latin poet, but there were Roman poets, and Ovid was one.. I would suggest rewriting this as "In his first book in exile, Tristia, the Roman poet Ovid recounts a birthday party for him and his brother, mentioning cake."

That's it for now. This is my first edit request, or discussion at least. Thanks. [[User:AndrewCLivingston|AndrewCLivingston]] ([[User talk:AndrewCLivingston|talk]]) 00:27, 22 August 2015 (UTC)
