Jamaican ginger cake is really nice with custard.

I like lemon cake the way my ex makes it, which is extremely
lemony, drizzled with lots and lots of lemon juice. Oh yes.

Carrot cake's OK so long as it's devoid of any hint of frosting
or other topping.  Carrot cake au naturel, I suppose.

Cuboid.  It's a coloured sponge cake, the colouring being in
a 2-by-2 grid of yellow and pink.  The perimeter is wrapped in
marzipan.  Google for images of it.
