Is It Safe To Eat A Cake Baked In Burnt Oven?

My husband melted a bowl in the oven a couple weeks ago. I was baking a cake & noticed a plastic like odor coming from the oven. My husband thought there might be plastic residue on the oven floor so he wiped it down & the residue seems gone & so does the odor. I put the cake back in & let it finish baking- is it safe to eat though?
