"Continental cakes to take away" are available in this cafe on Cuba Street in Wellington. Now, what is meant by "continental"? Is "continental" meant in the British sense of "European" though Britain and Europe are so far away and Australia would be the closest continent?

And what is a continental if European cake anyway? Is it a French "tarte" or a German "Torte" or…?
