Different people call the late 70's-early 80's the "Golden Age" of porn for different reasons. To some of us it seemed like the productions then were somehow more "real" and exciting than today's. Perhaps it's just waxing romantic about the films of our youth (something we do with "legitimate" flicks also). But the movies back then seemed to have a kind of an underground "outlaw" quality, something sort of anarchic. Of course, this feeling was enhanced when you furtively snuck into the porno theatre, praying nervously that no one would recognize you!
"Sweet Cakes" was neither the best nor worst of these films (which really were shot on film, not video), just a representative one. What I remember best is a great outdoor scene with kink queen Serena (with a Civil War soldier, no less!)and an appearance by Patricia Lee (aka Desiree West). She was a pretty young woman with brown skin and lovely large, natural breasts. She made relatively few movies but some of us porn fans have mighty long memories.

This is what might be called a "loop carrier," in which many scenes with different actors are stuck within a framing story. But director Howard Ziehm really makes the framing story work, and the segments are quite fantastic and offer a variety (in actors and kinks).
An early Jennifer Welles hardcore, she is an interviewer who talks with a publisher of an erotic magazine (played by Ras Kean, younger than her) - he relates various events he's photographed which cue extended scenes, including a 3-way in a barn with round and firm Serena and John Galt as a Civil War soldier (who also starred with her in "The Abduction of Lorelei" and was also married to her, I believe), a teenager who seduces the boy next door after school (Jean Dalton in braces and a schoolgirl getup to die for), and a lesbian-twin scene between Brooke and Taylor Young.
Between each story the chemistry between Kean and Welles heats up until the final scene in which they are so overtaken by the stories and the heat they fall into each other right there on the couch. The tension has been building throughout the film, and because it's been punctuated by strong sex scenes while being delayed you have the effect of having your(sweet) cake while eating it too.
And their scene together is great as well, Welles brings it as an older woman every time.
