A cake uses flour-based batter spongy in texture, often constructed in layers with frosting/icing on top. If it's mostly cream, it would be called Torte in German.
Check Google images, it'll make the difference clearer.

A pie can be anything from sweet to spicy, from fruit to meat to fish - the main thing what makes it a pie in comparison to a cake is that it's filling is surrounded by some kind of pastry. Shepard's pie is not really a pie by this measure, it often does not have any pastry with it, but it's meaty bits are often just baked over with a thick layer of cheddar. Maybe it was a pie once.
Thank you so much for the clarification, @Rosveen and @Lysette :-) Now it makes more sense to me, also searching for images on Google helped a lot^^
When I started to learn English at school (over 3 decades ago^^), they taught us that a cake is a pie, but I guess that cake was just a lie (German School-English sucks anyways lol)
Haha, yes, and I remember that they never explained that an english pudding is all but what the gerrman word "Pudding" is like. This is the next interesting thing for you to learn - what is an english pudding.1 -

I think the nearest german word for a pie is "Pastete"
Aah, ok, yes.. then it makes even more sense now^^
Unfortunately, the nearest German word for "cake" is "Kuchen" (that's how we learned it in school back then), which would be a pie, though. That's why I was a bit confused

✭PieWe had some friends of ours make a "piecakin" for Christmas, it was basically a lie baked inside of a cake...I don't have the pic anymore but I'm trying to find it! It looked glorious even though I'm a pie person lol!
And I agree, cheesecake is a pie.1 -

not really, but somewhat - it is something inbetween a cake and a pie. The crusty part is more cake like than that it would be a pie pastry, but the filling is more like that of a pie, even it is far more stiff, what is untypical for a pie. I would consider it more cake than pie.Edited by Lysette on 16 February 2016 14:270 -
