köken: Borrowed from English cakes, 1900s. Popularized by German food company Bahlsen which changed the brand name of their biscuits from Leibniz-Cakes to Leibniz-Keks in 1911; at the time, the plural was also Keks. Compare Danish kiks, Estonian keeks, Faroese keks, Finnish keksi, Icelandic kex, Norwegian kjeks, and Swedish kex, all ‘cookie, biscuit, cracker’.

köken: From English cakes, plural of cake, from Middle English cake, from Old Norse kaka (whence also kaka), from Proto-Germanic *kakǭ, from Proto-Indo-European *gog-. The reason why the word is lent in the plural is because it is easier to apply the Swedish declension patterns with cakes than with cake. Compare the similar loans räls and muffins. Compare Danish kiks (similarly borrowed from English).
