Does anyone know of research about cake fines? 🍰

Cake fines are a light-hearted social sanction groups use for minor violations, such as being late. The person then needs to make/buy a cake and bring it the next day.

I experienced it while at a research lab. Seems to be popular in the british emergency services too per https://cakeoffencesact.uk/

"Graduated sanctions" is 'Ostrom's 5th principle', but seems to get little attention.
