Once you've eaten your cake, you won't have it any more. :-)

You can't have your cake and eat it, too. Literally, it seems to imply that if you want your cake, you can't eat it . If you ate it, you wouldn't have it anymore. So maybe that means you may get to have something your way, but you have to give up something in order to have that thing your way. A really good example would be "friends with benefits".....you want the relationship with that person, but you risk the friendship by having the relationship.
Perhaps "cake" was used because most of us perk up and pay attention when someone says "CAKE".
