Food is an all-important resource in Minecraft. But aside from the basic survival foods like cooked meat, apples, and bread, there are "fancier" options. One of these is cake. Perfect for special occasions or if one is simply in the mood for something "extra," cake requires a variety of ingredients, but is well worth the effort.
How to make a cake in Minecraft
To make a cake, players will need the following:
- Milk Bucket x3
- Wheat x3
- Sugar x1
- Egg x1
Making a cake requires the use of a Crafting Table. Once placed, players will need to place three milk buckets across the first row. In the second row, from left to right, place sugar, egg, and sugar. The third row consists entirely of wheat. This will be enough to produce one cake.

Cake is a food item that can be placed and served up to seven times. The ingredients required are staples of a working farm. The milk bucket is acquired from milking cows, the wheat can be grown, the egg will spawn frequently from chickens, and sugar is harvested from sugar canes. It may seem like a lot at first glance but actually comes together rather quickly.
Those looking to spice up their cake can also add a candle to an uneaten cake. This candle can then be lit for special occasions. Taking a slice from the cake will cause the candle to drop. Clicking on the candle will extinguish the flame.
