Analysis of Bake a Cake



Take four cups of flour
It won't take an hour
Add two cups of sugar and a bit
Of small chocolate chip
Add eight eggs in the bowl
To make a cake is our goal
Add butter and ginger
We will not linger
Add some almond
And we can be fond
Of the cake
We had to bake
And at least
Don't forget the yeast!
