The German common name "cake tree" is based on the perception that the leaves before they fall and the wilted leaves in autumn have a distinct gingerbread scent. This smell is caused by flavonoids. Scientifically, this very ancient tree species has been documented as early as the Paleocene and Eocene, i.e., around 66 million years ago. Cake trees are therefore a "living fossil," like the ginkgo or the sequoia.
