Sculk sensors do not detect cake being eaten. This is a vibration the same way that food being eaten is detected (because cake is a food 😛) Edit: (Maybe?) justification for this is in the 20w51a changelog, "Eating Finish is staying, and will likely be much more useful to sculk sensors for this scenario." when you finish eating a cake the sculk sensor doesn't detect it.

@ILoveEndermans they don't detect sounds, they detect vibrations, and not all vibrations make sound. See MC-209998
Can confirm
