Interaction

• Since cake is only 7/8 blocks wide, it is possible to stand on the edge of a block beneath a cake.
• Cake will destroy falling blocks if placed under them, similar to a torch.
• It is possible to place cake on top of 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 completely will cause the upper cake to disappear, same as mining out the block of cake it is sitting on.
• It is also possible to place cakes (or any other block) on top of cakes by sneaking and placing a cake on top of another cake
• Mobs on top will rotate while attempting to move, a path finding oversight shared with fences.
• If cake is placed in a one deep hole you can get across the hole without jumping but if you are standing on the cake you will have to jump to get out of the hole unlike a slab.
• Cake can be used to create a functioning staircase, by placing a cake on each level of a 1 block by 1 block incline. This would be one of the most labor intensive staircases available, given the requirements to craft a cake, compared to all other possible methods for creating a staircase.

Miscellaneous

• 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.
• Placing a cake makes the same sound as placing wool.
• You can place cake on top of a bed, and while sleeping, the cake shows on your screen as if it were on top of your head.
• The name of the achievement is a reference to the internet meme "The Cake is a Lie", which originated from Valve`s game, Portal.

Description

Cake stands 1/4 lower than a regular block. It has white icing and a red cherry-like topping. It is quite easy to craft for experienced players. It restores 1 hunger bar per use and has a total amount of 6 uses. Cake does not drop when broken. It can only be eaten by clicking on it whilst it is placed. As of Minecraft 1.8, if you place a Redstone Comparator next to cake, you can get up to Redstone PL 14, 2 for each slice. This is used on 1.8 maps and minigames, and trolling on multiplayer with TNT.

Crafting

Cake is made with an Egg, three Buckets of milk, two Sugar, and three Wheat. If the player eats a cake once, it will appear to be cut into thirds or sixths. Crafting a cake will award you 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. Various maps have the phrases "Your cake is waiting" and "The cake is a lie".
