The term coffee cake can refer to either of the following:

• A cake, often sponge cake, which is made with coffee or has a coffee flavour.
• A cake served with coffee or eaten as a dessert. Under this definition, a coffee cake does not necessarily contain coffee. Coffee cakes are typically flavored with cinnamon, apple, nuts, and fruits. Blueberries are also a common fruit to add as an ingredient to this dessert, and one might hear the phrase "blueberry coffee cake". These cakes sometimes have a crumbly or crumb topping called Streusel.
