It's not likely to happen that someone will bake a shiur chala  of cake
except commercially, but yes it is chayav bechala.

How big a cake would that have to be?  Put  it in terms I can understand:  
how many Duncan Hines cake mixes?  And  would they all have to be in one big pan 
or would you combine (mentally) several  different cakes to make one big one 
that needs challah taken?  Would they  then all have to be in the oven at the 
same time or would you be required to  take challah if you baked the cakes 
serially and left them all on the table at  the same time to cool?  When would 
you take the challah?  While the  dough was still liquid or after the cake was 
baked?  I assume the  latter.
