In European and American countries, baked goods occupies an extremely important position in people’s lives. Almost every housewife can make cakes and snacks. Whenever relatives and friends gather, the host often offers homemade cakes or bread to the guests.

Strolling through the streets, there are many home-made and self-sold bakery and pastry shops, where you can buy fresh bread, cakes and pastries at any time.

Cake food must have four major functions: nutritional function, physiological function, and cultural function. Food has played an important cultural function since ancient times. In fact, in human society, food is closely related to politics, economy, culture, and religion. Food is indispensable for large country contacts, small friends gatherings and birthday commemorations.

The history of Rome and Greece also recorded the making of cakes, but according to the records of food historians, the first skilled baker (cake maker) should be the early Egyptians, and the first to use baking as a kind of The nation of art.
They developed reliable cooking methods and early ovens. At that time, the ovens used a charcoal fire function.

They made a variety of breads through the charcoal stoves, and many breads were added with honey as desserts. Although there is a lot of evidence from the pictures of the tomb to know the baking process, and even we can identify the raw materials found in the funeral, it is difficult to know exactly how the cake tasted at that time.

In the long river of history, whether it is the early Egyptians or the Europeans in the Middle Ages, their so-called “cake” is not what it is today. The ancient Egyptians would not even call it a cake. The word cake was adopted in the 13th century in England and is a derivative of the old Nordic word kaka.

The main characteristic of the cake at that time was its shape: a round and flat shape was made from a relaxed and natural dough, and the shape was done by hand. In the 17th century, cake hoops made of wood or tin were used to make cakes, which ensured that the cakes could maintain a neat round shape.
