Pound cake is named after its first recipe: a pound each of flour, butter, sugar and eggs, no measuring cups required. Chiffon cake came much later, in 1927, when a Los Angeles insurance salesman named Harry Baker started baking with vegetable oil instead of butter and kept the recipe secret for twenty years. This word find covers the cakes and what goes on them, from buttercream to ganache. The baking grid on the site is about the kitchen and the tools; this one is the finished cake.
