A Nazi swastika is tilted at 45°, and points to the right (though the one in this cake could point either direction depending on which side you’re looking at).
A swastika in this style is a religious symbol used in many eastern faiths and belief systems, including Buddhism.

The Nazi flag used a 45° rotated swastiska. However horizontal swastikas were also commonly used by the Nazis.
