: I am looking for the meaning of the saying "covered in cake". Can anybody help me?

I did an Internet search, and conclude that "covered in cake" just means what it says. Actually, it is said even when the cake only covers a small but conspicuous part of the body or clothing, since a little cake can go a long way. People who get covered in cake include drunks at parties, newlyweds cutting the cake, and miscellaneous others. One quote encountered on the Web: "While we firmly stand by the mantra that it's never a good party unless you have at least a few partially-clothed girls covered in cake jumping on your booth . . . ."
