Why is oreo's ice cream cake called cake, if it does not consist of a cake base or bottom or top or middle? :P!


Question: I was researching how to make homemade oreo ice cream cake. Then, I realized that it only says:

1 package Oreo cookies
1/4 cup melted butter
1/2 gallon of your favorite flavor of ice cream (I am using mint chocolate chip)
whipped cream

Why is it called cake, if there is no cake in this ice cream cake? Or is it called cake for its shape?

Its a matter of shape and preset conception. And probably a good bit of marketing.

Cake for the shape.

Same as a cake of soap, because it's not a baked batter, it's soap. It's called 'cake' for the shape.
