Answer 1

Answer:

sorry I don't know what is irony

Answer 2

Answer:

In the first part of the sentence, the speaker refers to the cakes as 'small' when they eat them. However, in the second part of the sentence, those 'small' cakes are contradictingly referred to as 'large' when it comes to giving them away.

Those two adjectives used to describe the cakes contradict each other in the same sentence, but under different situations.

This is called irony.
