To borrow a phrase I heard the other day, it's like comparing an orange to a polar bear.
Joomla is an off-the-shelf CMS that provides a functional website in a matter of minutes, you can customise the look and feel using templates and extend the functionality using extenstions, etc... CakePHP is a framework to build websites, but you start with nothing. Not even a database, you have to design everything from the ground up. Apparently Joomla does support MVC development now (I'm only going off what someone told me about 12 months ago), but to me the two things are completely different .
