Just did this recently. I found the following resources valuable:
- Expandable Behavior:
http://debuggable.com/posts/unlimited-model-fields-expandable-behavior:48428c2e-9a88-47ec-ae8e-77a64834cda3
- EAV Plugin: http://github.com/morrislaptop/cakephp-eav/tree/master
- Dynamic Data Fields: Practical CakePHP Projects:
http://www.amazon.com/Practical-CakePHP-Projects/dp/143021578X

Ended up using Expandable Behavior as the simplest solution. The other
options would help storing the data using proper datatypes and
administering "EAV schema". But in my case the amount of data or query
volume didn't really require these.
