Cake is a food produced through crafting, which can be placed on a solid surface, giving the ability for any player to consume. Once it's placed, it can't be recollected with the use of a Silk Touch pickaxe nor with shears.


Description[]

CakeItemNew

Cake stands 14 lower than a regular block. It has white icing and a red cherry-like topping. It restores (Shank) per use and has a total of seven uses. Cake doesn't drop when broken. Cake can't be eaten like other foods such as cookies and enchanted apples; instead, it can only be eaten by clicking on it whilst it's placed. When an output is taken with a redstone comparator, it will emit a signal strength of 2 for every slice remaining, up to a strength of 14. Cake can fill up 1 level of a composter, and it can be eaten by pandas when dropped.

Cake is made with an egg, three buckets of milk, two sugar, and three wheat. If a player eats a cake once, it will appear to be cut into thirds or sixths. Crafting a cake will award one with the achievement "The Lie" (it's usually required to earn the achievement "Time to Farm" first), which is a reference to the game, Portal.
