Earlier in the story, Miss Maudie would make 3 little cakes, one each for Dill, Scout and Jem. When she only makes two little cakes, it is a sign that Jem has grown up and is now an adult. This idea of Jem maturing links in with how Jem is discovering more about Maycomb, its people and the racial segregation that occurs.

What is the significance of Miss Maudie's two little cakes and a large one in 'To Kill a Mockingbird'?

Miss Maudie always used to bake three little cakes for the children. In this part of the novel, she lets Jem have a slice of the big cake to show that he is now older and more mature. This supports the theme of growing up.


What was the significance of Maudie' two little cakes and one large one?

the significance of the cakes was that by giving jem a slice of the big cake instead of his own small cake like scout and dill was that the big cake was a symbol of him becoming an adult in an unspoken way from ms. maudie. this was right after the jem was so devastated by the tom robinson being charged guilty to raping mayella and he became so upset about the unfairness of the charge since he was obviously innocent. Hope this helped :)
