An enduring problem with cakes more interesting than "idk, yellow flavor? it's a sheet cake"-tier is that bakers love to combine disparate layers– say, one chocolate layer and one raspberry layer– such that the intended consumption method is clearly to get a top-down scoop onto your fork. But then they build the cake so tall you'd can't possibly wrangle a vertical scoop onto your fork let alone into your mouth. The slice inevitably ends up fallen over sideways so you're only picking off layer at a time and this is ridiculous. Nobody owns a fork as tall as their hand, stop building the cakes like they do!
