you need one of those transporter things like on Star Trek
or
he sends you the cooking instructions and an ingredients list, then you go to the shops, buy the ingredients, go home and make the cake.

@Muks and Ray
I am a bad chef... no matter how precisely I add the ingredients the outcome always finds the trash
@Altenbach
Why it is not found yet?.. I cant wait to hope... You must taste his cake once.. I bet even you would demand this attachment thing
we can have voice chat, video chat, n/w gaming, gambling all over the net... but not a small piece of cake... sad.

Lets turn to the movies and tv shows.....
MM1 (movie method 1)
1) take lots of photos
2) email photos
3) print photos
4) put a bra on your head (or would an oven mitt be more appropriate in this case?)
5) use a machine to make cakes appear

1) Use a transmat (courtesy of the daleks)

The cake is full of empty calories and is simply a rum delivery mechanism. Without it, the recipe becomes a lot simpler...
That sound valid to me. What do YOU put in your empty calories?

To solve the probelm in an engineering way, you must realize that the internet and every email-attachment just consists of binary data, so some information represented by 0s and 1s.
In EE we have stuff like ADC to convert analog voltage signals to 0s and 1s or Counters to do the same with pulses (frequency signals).
On the receiver side, we would use similar equipement DAC or digital waveform generators to convert the email attachment back to voltage signals.
Well, I suppose you have no equivalent of an ADC for rum cake. In EE, we also have signals that don't match this requirenment, so we need to convert the signal (e.g. motor stages using encoders).
I suppose you are only interested in the sensation of eating the rum cake. So I suggets it would be the easiest way to get some individual at the location of the cake and stick a lot of electrodes in the brain of that individual. Measure and digitize the voltages in the brain. Transmit this as an email attachement. Stick a lot of electrodes in your brain too. Play that attachement to the electrodes. Electrodes must be placed precisly at the same locations of the sensual centres, but I've to little domain expertice in BioMedEng.
Please take care not to harm anyone except the cake.

Today attaching cakes to an e-mail is just not possible.
Would you consider some SPAM? I get a lot of that in E-mail
LOL
