About Cake

A baked dessert made mainly of flour, sugar, eggs and oil; fairly high in calories.

Health Benefits of Cake

A 'triple-high' dessert of sugar, oil and carbs

A basic sponge cake is ~347 kcal per 100g with about 16g fat and 46g carbs. Pound cake (1:1:1:1 butter, sugar, flour, eggs) is higher still, and cream and icing add another layer of calories. A slice (~80g) is ~278 kcal - about 2.4x a small bowl of rice.

Occasional, and choose small

Enjoy a small slice (60-80g) and share the rest; savour slowly rather than gulping. Pair with black coffee or plain tea, and skip sugary drinks to balance sweetness. Cheesecake and mousse run higher than sponge - watch portions.
