What is Cake in Minecraft?
Cake is a unique food item that you can place in the world as a block. It looks like a delicious white cake with red berry decorations on top. The main purpose of cake is to be a shareable food source. Unlike other foods that you eat from your inventory, you place the cake down and then right click it to eat one slice at a time. A single cake has seven slices, so it can be shared with friends or eaten over time. It is a great centerpiece for a party or celebration in the game. It is one of the most complex food items to craft, making it a special treat for any player who puts in the effort to bake one.
How to get Cake in Minecraft
The only way to get a cake is by crafting it. It does not generate naturally, though you can sometimes find one in a chest in a buried treasure. The crafting recipe is quite famous for being complex. You will need three buckets of milk, two lumps of sugar, one egg, and three bundles of wheat. To get milk, you need to use an empty bucket on a cow, goat, or mooshroom. For sugar, you need to craft it from sugar cane, which grows near water. Eggs are laid by chickens, which you can find in many biomes. Finally, wheat is grown on farmland from seeds, which you get by breaking tall grass. Once you have all the ingredients, open a crafting table. Place the three milk buckets in the top row, the egg between two sugars in the middle row, and the three wheat in the bottom row. The empty buckets will be returned to you.
How to use Cake in Minecraft
To eat a cake, you must first place it on top of a solid block. Once it is placed, you can right click it to eat one slice. Each slice restores two hunger points, for a total of fourteen hunger points for the whole cake. This makes it a very good food source, especially since you can eat it very quickly. It is a great food to have at your base for a quick snack without using up inventory space. A very fun use for a cake is to put a candle on it. You can place any color of candle on top of a cake and then light it with a flint and steel to create a birthday cake. This is perfect for celebrating with friends on a server. A cake also sends out a redstone signal via a comparator, which changes depending on how many slices are left.
