Add your Twitter timeline to your CakePHP website. I also included The MVC for your website.

index.ctp

<?php if(!isset($tweets['error'])) : ?>
    <h2><?php echo __("Twitter"); ?></h2>
    <?php foreach($tweets as $k => $v) :?>
        <div class="sidebar-tweet">
            <p>
                <?php echo $v['text']; ?>
                <br/>
                <em><?php echo $v['created_at']; ?></em>
            </p>
        </div> <!-- .tweet -->
    <?php endforeach; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
