With the advent of time as humans had more control over fire, this baking process, went through a sea change. In the pre-biblical times, people mixed honey, butter, and nuts to make what you call the first cakes.

Nowadays, in the modern times there are various cake making institutes which teach the enrollees all the aspects of baking and cake making.
