The development of cake size
At the earliest time, cakes were all round, so the cakes in cake shops were all in inches, and the "inch" of cakes meant inches, so generally speaking, a 6-inch cake meant a circle with a diameter of 6 inches. The diameter of a standard mold was about 15cm, and the height was about 5cm.
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, etc., so it was impossible to mark the size and size of cakes in inches, so the size of cakes was marked in pounds.
