Throughout this course, we will delve into various crucial topics that form the foundation of cake. We begin with an exploration of product classifications, understanding the diverse range of cakes and some global differences. 

Our journey continues with a deep dive into raw materials, unraveling the functions of flour, fats and oils, and sugars.
