At the earliest time, cakes were all round, so cakes in cake shops were all in inches, and the "inch" of cakes meant inches, so generally we said that 6-inch cakes were round and had a diameter of 6 inches. The standard mold has a diameter of about 15cm, a height of about 5cm, and a square shape of about 14 cm, which can be eaten by 2-4 people.

Later, due to the increasing popularity of cakes, there was a great demand for cakes, and there were heart-shaped cakes, square cakes, multi-layer cakes, cartoon cakes, character cakes and so on. So it is impossible to mark the size and size of the cake in inches, so the size of the cake is marked in pounds.
