Classification of Cakes 1. Shortened Cake – is also known as conventional, or creamed cakes. This uses solid type of shortening like margarine and butter. Example: Red Velvet Cake, Cheese Cakes, Banana Cake, Devil's Food Cake, Chocolate Brownies… Method of Mixing – Creaming, Whipping
Cheese Cup Cake Chocolate Brownies with Roasted Peanuts Banana Cake Red Velvet Cup Cake
2. Un-shortened Cake or Foam/Sponge Type- are cakes made without the addition of fat/shortening. Two basic types of un-shortened cakes are:  Yellow Sponge Cakes – made with whole eggs (egg whites separated from egg yolks) ex. Sponge Roll or Jelly Roll, Sponge Round Cake  White Angel Cakes – made with egg whites only ex. Angel Food Cake, Sponge Roll, Meringue Method of Mixing – Beating, Cutting and Folding

Examples: Orange Chiffon Cake Vanilla Chiffon Cake Orange Jelly Roll Method of Mixing – Beating, Cutting and Folding
