This is a piece of cake.
The cake sponge creates shadows by its microstructure. This is something that displacement or normal cannot create. This work is to reproduce the texture of the sponge by shading the structure with light. With the appropriate Materials, Shader, machine power and guts, It can be made realistic!
You can create many variations of this strawberry shortcake by changing Materials. I hope this work will help your creativity. I welcome your comments, opinions and requests. Thank you in advance. The next one will be more-better thing. Please see also https://www.cgtrader.com/3d-models/food/fruit/strawberry-layercake
Note: only strawberry has basecolor textures.
