It depends on how you wanna play. If you want to have some ore and start making bars, take into account the following facts: 1) do you have a steady supply of mine tools (dynamite, etc.)? 2) one of the main bonuses of unlocking the mine and smelter is to win diamonds from time to time and vouchers. Is this something you want? 3) do you level up quickly or do you take your time and therefore regularly have enough coins to buy new stuff? I'm saying this because the juice press unlocks at level 26 and fishing does at level 27. You may want to save money for these instead. Of course, if you have enough or get it quite easily I say go for it. Otherwise think about what you'd rather have first.

Your second question is a tough one! Every cake available in the oven requires resources from the dairy so they suck. To me the easiest cake to make is the red berry one, providing you get enough saws and axes and money for trees and berry bushes. You only need milk, no cream, no butter, etc. It only takes one hour and it sells well nowadays as it's become a rare item. I don't think I've really ever used it for profit, though. The pie oven is nicer for this imo.
