West Point production has a long history in Britain, France, Spain, Germany, Italy, Austria, Russia and other countries, and has made remarkable development achievements. According to historical records, ancient Egypt, Greece and Rome have started the earliest bread and cake making. An ancient Egyptian painting shows the baking scene of Thebes court in BC 1 175. From the painting, we can see several scenes of making bread and cakes, indicating that organized baking workshops and molds had appeared at that time. It is said that ordinary citizens use bread and cakes made in the shape of animals to worship the gods, so there is no need to use live animals. Some rich people also donate money as a fund to reward those who are innovative in baking varieties.

According to statistics, this ancient empire has 16 kinds of bread and cakes. Now people know that the earliest cake in Britain is a kind of fruit cake called Siml. It is said that it originated in ancient Greece, and its surface is decorated with 12 almond balls, representing the gods in Roman mythology. Today, it is still used to celebrate Easter in some parts of Europe. It is said that in ancient Greece, honey was the earliest sweetener used in food, and honey cakes were once popular in Europe, especially in honey producing areas. The ancient Greeks made a fried cake with flour, oil and honey, and made a tower filled with grapes and almonds, which may be the earliest food tower. Aristotle mentioned various baking methods many times in his works.
