A poetic, if not entirely inaccurate, description.
One makes the batter, then places a spit over the fire and casts a series of charms that will turn the spit and slowly brush the batter over the cake in progress, thus building up the layers. The variations on the charms to allow for the inclusion of layers of jam are my own invention.
The spellwork is a variation of several charms useful in potioneering. My master was of the opinion that one ought not be allowed at the bench for anything more complex than NEWT-level potions until one had proven one's proficiency in the kitchen.
