What's y'all favorite type of cake?

[โ€“] scytale@lemm.ee 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm having a lemon cake phase right now. It's so refreshing and it doesn't give me that full icky feeling that chocolate does when you eat too much.

[โ€“] Emperor@feddit.uk 4 points 1 year ago

I'll be buying a lemon drizzle cake tomorrow for a friend's birthday.

If it does I change my answer. I feel like cheesecake is more of a pie but I like pie more

[โ€“] JetpackJackson@feddit.de 3 points 1 year ago

Oh yeah I can see how it's kinda like a pie. Categories are hard. Chocolate pie and good key lime pies are my favorite pies. I've got a big sweet tooth...

Strawberry cake, but wont say no to a chocolate one.

[โ€“] cujo@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 year ago

Pie.

Jokes aside, a good carrot or spice cake takes the (heh) cake.

[โ€“] Bongles@lemm.ee 6 points 1 year ago

I like basic cakes, vanilla, chocolate, funfetti. If you start involving fruit you're losing me. I'll be polite and eat it and even enjoy it a bit but I'd much prefer the sugary nonsense.

[โ€“] yetanaika@feddit.cl 6 points 1 year ago

Cheesecakes. There's no match

[โ€“] PhatalFlaw@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Angel food cake w/strawberries!

[โ€“] FredericChopin_@feddit.uk 5 points 1 year ago

Rainbow cake looks the coolest, but I do like a cheesecake.

Any kind of upside-down cake with the fruits in it.

I also love fruitcake, while on the topic

Not sure, I'm not much of a cake specialist, but they do look similar don't they?

They're made similarly too. If they don't count, I'd choose carrot cake. With REAL carrots, not the common artificial carrot stuff.

[โ€“] zombie_kong@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Carrot. Iโ€™m making a carrot cake today.

Anything without that shitty stuff that some people call icing.

You know the stuff. It also shows up on that mushy monstrosity that some people call sugar cookies.

[โ€“] Quills@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Ooh, yeah i don't like icing too, i always leave it on the plate when i eat a birthday cake

And I've heard bout these sugar cookies before, never seen one personally tho
