      So, what do you have for dessert after a turducken? This year, apparently, the answer is a heaping helping of piecaken. In the spirit of stuffing things into other things, a piecaken is one or several pies baked inside a cake.

  1. Hilary Hanson (25 November 2015), “Stop Calling This Dessert Monstrosity A 'Piecaken'”, in HuffPost:
    But there's one big problem with the piecaken: its name. The moniker is a nod to the "turducken," the patently disturbing Thanksgiving dish made from a chicken stuffed inside a duck stuffed inside a turkey. The word "turducken" takes one syllable from each of the birds that have given their lives for the feast. Tur=turkey, duck=duck, en=chicken. This is pretty obvious stuff, but it seems to have been lost on whoever coined the term "piecaken." The only two components here are pie and cake. What does the "n" stand for in piecaken? Unless this cake and pie concoction is going to get baked inside a chicken, this name makes no sense.
