If it fits your goals and doesn't screw up the rest of your day putting you over your calorie goal, go for it. If not, don't.
Eta: wow, you guys are fast.
Hmmmm actually am craving more for brunch yea
Then the question is, is that affecting your goals?
my goal is to to lose much this year but I don't wanna be harsh on myself so...1 -

I personally don't find cake very filling or nutritious for the amount of calories so I would not eat something like cake for breakfast every single day. It is up to you how you want to use your calories.
omg the first sentence is horrifying
I'm not sure if you are serious? If so, I suggest spending some time reading the stickies "Most Helpful Posts" at the top of each forum section as I think a basic understanding of calories as they pertain to energy balance would be helpful for you.
ok though your name is cool0 -
The question isn't yes or no. It's how much and what flavor?8

Sometimes I don't have time to count cals but cake is essential everydaythank you so much for answering

I love having pastries with my coffee in the morning. The key is portion control so as long as it fits in your calories. I have been making my coffee at home instead of going to McDonalds. Cheaper and healthier3

McDonald's sells plain black coffee and adding sugar at home isn't any less caloric than having a McDonald's employee add it.6 -

I think they only add sugar if you ask for it. I agree on the cheaper comment. Maybe they meant healthier as in no risk of binging on egg mcmuffins while enjoying the coffee??2 -

That seems like an odd association for a cup of coffee, especially when the poster said nothing about "cozier" they said "cheaper and healthier".0
