A cake is a block that can serve as food. It can be eaten by placing and using it, with each use consuming one of its seven slices. The entire cake gives the most hunger points out of every food item, but has low saturation.

A cake with candle is an uneaten cake with any type of candle placed on it, which can be lit with a flint and steel to emit light.

Once the cake is placed, it cannot be recollected even with the use of Silk Touch, meaning placing it is final. Cakes with candles always drop their respective candle when broken.

{ "item": "Cake", "stacksize": "1–4", "chance": 0.39719773101739475, "structure": "Trial Chambers", "container": "Intersection chest" }

Unlike most food, the cake cannot be eaten as an item in the hotbar. Before being eaten, it must first be placed on top of a solid block. Placing the cake on a slab also works, as the slab acts like a solid block. The cake instead floats half a block on top of the slab.

Each cake has seven "slices"; each use consumes one slice progressing inward from the west. A single slice restores 2 (👁 🍗
) hunger and 0.4 hunger saturation. Eating all seven slices of a cake restores 14 (👁 🍗
× 7) hunger and 2.8 hunger saturation.

Since eating a cake comes with no animation, the cake can be eaten at a rate of one slice per tick. Multiple players can eat from the same cake at the same time. In Java Edition, eating cake makes no sound, unlike other foods.

As a redstone component, when connected to a comparator, a whole cake emits a signal strength of 14. The signal strength decreases two units with each slice.

Cake destroys falling blocks if placed under them, similar to a torch. A player who is sneaking can place any block (including a cake or a falling block) on top of a cake without the block breaking.

Some pandas move toward a dropped cake to pick up and eat it. Some may not, depending on the cake's location. Cake cannot be used to breed pandas.

Placing a cake into a composter raises the compost level by 1.

A cake is broken when pushed by a piston, and it drops nothing.

Using a candle on an uneaten cake creates a cake with candle^[a] of that color (including uncolored). Eating any of the cake causes the candle to drop.

Using flint and steel, fire charge, or any flaming projectile on an unlit cake with candle lights its candle. Lit cakes with candles emit a light level of 3 and point lighting of
 #d3852b when the "Render Dragon Features for Creators" experiment is enabled in Minecraft Preview. Interacting with the lit candle (but not the cake) extinguishes it.

Lit candled cakes emit the same point lighting as candles.

Issues relating to "Cake" are maintained on the bug tracker. Issues should be reported and viewed there.

• Because cake is only ⁷⁄₈ blocks wide, it is possible to stand on the edge of a block beneath a cake. This makes it possible to create a functioning staircase using cakes placed on a ramp of 1×1 blocks.
• It is possible to place cake on top of another cake by placing a cake on the ground, then placing another cake on the side of a block above and to the side of the first cake, similar to placing torches on a chest. Eating the lower cake causes the upper cake to disappear, as does mining out the block of cake it is sitting on.
• Mobs on top of cakes rotate while attempting to move, a pathfinding oversight shared with fences.
• If cake is placed in a hole one block deep, players can get across the hole without jumping, although a player standing on the cake must jump to get out of the hole.

• Cake was added to Minecraft following the ModDB 2010 Indie of the Year Awards. Notch agreed to add cake to Minecraft if it won, which led to a campaign called "The Quest For Cake". Minecraft won 3 of the 7 awards, including the "Indie of the Year" award.
• The player can place cake on top of a bed, and while sleeping, the cake shows on the player's screen as if it were on top of their head.
• The name of the achievement for crafting a cake is a reference to the internet meme "The Cake is a Lie", which originated from Valve Software's game, Portal.
• On May 17, 2019, for the 10th anniversary of Minecraft, the cake model was changed to display a "10" above it, made of white concrete.
• Unlike most foods, cakes don't count towards the advancement "A Balanced Diet" in Java Edition.^[2]
