Meter cake or meter-long cake is a bicolor[1] loaf-shaped cake made from yellow and brown sponge cake layered with buttercream or pudding and covered with a chocolate topping.[2] It is baked in a baking tin in the shape of a "roe deer back"[3] and served cut into slices.
The cake's name is often a hyperbole derived from its length, which is usually less than a meter, but ranks it among the longest baked cakes.[4] A meter cake is traditionally served as a dessert during Christmas or Easter.[5][6][3]
