Family party

Anna has 5 €, Anezka has 4,60 €, and for all the money, they want to buy desserts for a family party. They decide between cakes and a pinwheel: The pinwheel is € 0.40 more expensive than the cake, and the cakes can be bought for all the money by a third more than the pinwheels. How much does each dessert cost?
