Best Answer

The ancient Roman cakes were different from our present day cakes because they did not use the ingredients that we use. Most of them were flat cakes many times layered. They had honey cakes, cheese cakes, and a cake called "placenta" (not the modern meaning of the word) which was layered with cheese, honey and pastry -- almost like a dessert lasagna.

What type of cakes did the Romans have?

The Romans had at least two types of cakes. One was for dessert or snacking and the other was for religious purposes. In certain rituals, cakes were offered and these were usually made by either the Vestal virgins or a priestess of whatever god or goddess was being honored. A type of cake, made by the Vestals, was used in the marriage ceremony if it were "confarreatio". (This was a sacred and solemn Roman marriage ceremony) For dessert cakes, the Romans had "honey cakes" which were similar to baklava, with layers of dough filled with honey and sometimes ground nets and fruits.
