Technically, one should not be feeding cake of any description to one’s animals..........
If food is left lying about for just minutes, a dog or cat may decide to sample it.

Just enjoying all this humour but the person who just suggested that animals could eat something if left lying about is correct. We had a cat for years and he was capable of leaping up onto the work too but he was a fussy fellow! Certainly would have stuck his nose into the cake but would never have eaten it. After that, nobody would be eating it as it would be thrown into the bin!

Years ago I went to visit a friend. He was a bit late getting home from work (I had come from work) so I talked to his wife.
The phone rang and she went out into the passage to answer it.
Quick as a flash, the cat jumped up on her chair and started quickly lapping from her cup. Then when it heard her return, it was on the floor again, looking innocent.
She came into the room, talking to me. I answered her and before I could tell her, she took a good sip of her tea, so I thought it better to say nothing.

Yes, you are right, lots of bits in the kitchen one could swallow. That's why they don't put coins anymore in cake in UK. But don't kill all traditions please. Or we will be sipping liquidised strained food. Cold, so nobody get burned...
I think we stopped putting sixpences in Christmas pud when they ceased to be made of silver.
