Originally, these cakes were made with coffee as an actual ingredient. Then the Danes began the culture of eating cake while taking a swipe at coffee, and as a result of this, coffee cakes evolved as one of their diverse traditional and cultural patterns. German and Dutch immigrants carried their coffee bread and streusel traditions to the United States in the 19th century. Today there are so many varieties of coffee cakes like: traditional cinammon, tart cherry, pecan custard, sweet cinnamon apple...typically they have a crumb topping or a glaze drizzle. Of course you don't have to include coffee as an ingredient because most of them don't use that anymore...but if you're making your own, culinary experts say it's worth a try!
