iSCSI Cake is a Windows iSCSI target which shares server's disk, partition, VMDK file, and ISO file with iSCSI initiators/clients. As a standard iSCSI target, iSCSI Cake is compatible with iSCSI initiators on Windows, Linux, and Solaris. iSCSI Cake consolidates storage resources for enterprise virtualization with fully support of VMware ESX server and Windows 2008 failover cluster

I've use this iSCSI Cake too along with other Openfiler, FreeNAS, FC IET and and I would say the Cake is pretty straight forward and easier to configure just like 'piece of cake' but it does really well for small and test/dev environment. Thanks for sharing!
