《蛋糕制作入门》中收纳了基础海绵蛋糕、戚风蛋糕、重油蛋糕和芝士蛋糕的制作方法，考虑到家庭读者的喜好，还特别精心搜寻了属于大众化的蛋糕，例如，香草戚风蛋糕、大理石蛋糕、黄油蛋糕、芝士蛋糕、天使蛋糕、松糕（这些蛋糕都是饼店里热卖的产品）；书中也讲到一些调味蛋糕的制作，例如，芝麻蛋糕、核桃无粉蛋糕、柠檬蛋糕、巧克力蛋糕等，还有美国乡村风味的美式蛋糕，也是值得一试的甜点。（The ABC of Cake Making shows methods to make basic sponge cake, chiffon cake, pound cake and cheese cake. It has also carefully selected popular cake types to cater to the interest of ordinary readers, like vanilla chiffon cake, marble cake, butter cake, angel cake and muffin (which are all best sellers in cake shops); it also touches upon methods to make flavored cakes, like sesame cake, walnut flourless cake, lemon cake, chocolate cake and American-style cake that reminds one of the American countryside, which are also worth sampling.）
