There are two possibilities here - if you are folding in whisked egg whites, it is usually to give the cake a light and airy texture - it's an old method before the advent of raising agents like baking powder. Also, this is used in cakes like Angel Cake in large quantities in order to give a spongier texture that is very light but does not crumble very easily.

If you are referring to the creaming method where you beat butter and sugar together until light and fluffy and then add eggs and so on, it is still for the same reasoning, more or less. It creates a homogenous blend of fat and sugar and lends a lightness to the finished sponge.

Mix the butter until soft. Add the sugar and mix until well incorporated.

You should cream your cake batter before mixing because it makes the batter creamier and tastier for most people anyway!

What is whisked cake baking?

A cake that is made by blending the ingredients together with electric beaters or a hand whisk could be called a 'whisked' cake. Cakes made by this method usually have a runnier batter and more liquid ingredients - more milk, eggs or oil instead of butter. Whisked cakes are quick and convenient to prepare and there is relatively little mess - one bowl, a whisk and a spatula. That is why packet cake mixes are prepared using this method - the dry ingredients are mixed for you in advance and all you have to do is add the wet ingredients and whisk them together.
