A "flake" is a person who is not often responsible or dependable. For example, if you have an appointment, the flake might not show up. The adjective version of this word is "flaky".

Unpredictably eccentric or odd. Did you ever watch "Friends"? The Phoebe character would be a good example of a flake.

That would mean the person thought the "flake" was "cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs."
