Cake

=Cake= Cake is a solid bock used as food, and appears as a sponge based topped with white icing and glazed cherries. It is the only edible block-all other food items must be held in the hand and right-clicked to consume them. Cake cannot be eaten while being held-it must be placed on a suitable block first.

Cake consists of six slices in total, and a slice is removed each time the cake is used (by right-clicking). More than one person can eat parts of the same cake. Breaking the cake block or the block underneath it will destroy the cake and not drop anything.

Each use of a cake restores 1 hunger point, and it may be used up to six times for a total of 6 hunger points.

=Crafting= To craft the yummy succulent cake, you need 3 milk buckets, 2 sugar, 1 egg and 3 wheat. The 3 wheat must go in a horizontal line on the bottom row, the 2 sugar must be on each side of the middle row, left and right, the egg will go in the middle row, middle slot, in between the 2 sugar, and the 3 milk buckets will go in a horizontal line on the top row.

After the cake is crafted, the three empty milk buckets go straight into the player's inventory, rather than staying "on" the crafting table.

The achievement "The Lie" is also rewarded the first time cake is crafted.

=Advantages=
 * Since cakes can be used repeatedly in SMP, they can be shared by several players as a "Med Kit".
 * Despite its complexity, cake is technically a renewable resource.
 * Cake can be eaten instantly without any eating animation and without switching the currently selected item.
 * Cake restores six hunger units.

=Disadvantages=
 * Cake requires several different items to craft - sugar, wheat, chicken eggs, a crafting table and three buckets of milk. As such, it takes some time to make a cake.
 * Once cake is placed it cannot be retrieved.
 * If you only eat part of a cake, you'll have to come back to that exact spot to eath the rest of it later on.
 * Cake does not stack, so you will be unable to carry too much of it without sacrificing a large amount of inventory space (as of TU7 on Minecraft Xbox 360, cake does stack).
 * Cake has a low saturation level, causing you to become hungry again in a very short time.
 * You can not place a cake block on top of another cake block. This can be circumvention by placing two or more other blocks right next to where you want to make the cake stack. Place a cake at the bottom of the stack, and work your way up from there, placing cake with the center cursor on your stack of other blocks.
