Q&A for How to Make a Cake in Minecraft

Wait longer. 5-10 minutes should do. If it still won't lay an egg, find another chicken.

No, since there is only one way to make a cake.

You craft in a crafting table.

Once it has grown to full size, press and hold it (like you would break a normal block). Then pick it up.

There is just one way to make a cake, and that is using the method above.

Break tall grass and double tall grass with your hand or a tool and plant the seeds near water and farm them once fully grown.

Keep searching, or you can go to Creative Mode and spawn chickens with spawn eggs.

There are 3 other mobs that provide milk: mooshroom, brown mooshroom, and the goat.

If you see tall green thin plants by a river, that’s sugar cane. Break it, go to crafting, and place 1 in the table, and you'll get sugar.

There are not more cakes in vanilla versions of the game because Mojang, the creators of Minecraft, have not added any. However, there are mods that exist that add more cakes.

1 slice of cake with give you 2 hunger points, or 1 full drumstick of hunger. A whole cake has 7 slices, meaning you can recover 7 drumsticks of hunger from eating a cake.

You cannot feed cake to any animals, only players can eat a cake in the game.

However long it takes you to place all the ingredients down is how long it will take to craft a cake.

Try to visit different biomes, and eventually you should be able to find some chickens.

Initially this was not possible but this has been changed, you do get the buckets back now, they remain in the crafting table after you craft the cake.

You will probably need to update your Minecraft for this to work properly.

You can eat cake anywhere, as long as your hunger isn’t full, and you have a solid block to place it on.

No, the pictures above just use obsidian for the aesthetics. Cake can be placed on top of any solid block.

1, because you can only use 3 buckets at a time.

By water you'll find sugar cane that can be crafted into sugar, or in MCPE 1.15 you can convert honey to sugar.

You must have some hunger in the bottom right for you to start to eat it. Then right-click on it to start eating the cake.

You have to mine iron ore, then smelt the iron ore to make iron ingots. You need 3 iron ingots to make a bucket.

Swipe or hold the stack; if you hold, a bar will appear above. Let go when you have the right amount. Swiping, however, is easier: Swipe over how many boxes you want to put it in, i.e., if you want it in thirds, then drag it over 3 blocks. 64 is the maximum you can cut it into.

You can't cook the cake, you only need to craft it on the crafting table and place it.
