In a sentence

このthisケーキcakeはおいしいdelicious

This cake is delicious!

How it works

この (this) points right at the noun it precedes (ケーキ (cake)), and は (topic) raises that as the topic — "as for this cake…". The predicate is the i-adjective おいしい (delicious), which can finish a sentence on its own with no copula, so there is no です (is) here — that makes it plain and casual.
