Instrumental Analogies

Hello, I'm a clarinetist/composer .My jr hi band director told us that if u analogize band with cake, that the clarinets r the flour. How ever, I also write for orchestra and marching band .I want to know that for those mediums does the clarinet still remain the same. I'm finding so many other analogies for the whole clarinet family in marching band and orchestra. Any thoughts/feelings?

She further told us that the upper woodwinds r the icing on the cake. The trumpets/mid-brass r the eggs. I've 4gotten what else she said were the other parts of the cake. Has any1 else been taught this in grade school? What r your adult thoughts about this now that u've been around musically.

For marching band or orchestra, do the other instruments take on other elements of the cake? What r the other elements f a cake that the other instruments analogize to for either mediums?
