Can Someone Help Me Out With This "riddle"?

Could you be referring to Sassafrass? The Sassafrass tree which is common on the east coast and many places was the flavour for rootbeer. You dig up the surface roots, and boil them to make root beer tea.
Tastes great. Made of wood.
Good luck since googling it did not get me anything.

cinnamon is the bark of a tree - makes sense to me. "The name cinnamon comes from Greek kinnámōmon, from Phoenician and akin to Hebrew qinnâmôn, itself ultimately from a Malaysian language, cf. Malay and Indonesian kayu manis "sweet wood"."
but I also found a reference to licorace being called sweetwood.
"sweet wood" refers to Licorice
"sweet bark" refers to Cinnamon
Usually doing a "web" search can get you answers before you need to post them here.
Given the definition from chakkakin above I think it is cinnamon. I don't believe it is nutmeg, because nutmeg is a nut. hmmmmm, never heard of it .
I don't believe nutmeg is actually a nut, like we think of tree nuts like walnut or pecan. it is a seed of a nutmeg fruit.
"sweet wood" refers to Licorice
"sweet bark" refers to Cinnamon

LOL, you mean, like, GOOGLE? 
Doh...
I think with your cakes, "sweet wood" refers to something entirely different, Mara.
