|---|---|---|
| Milk Bucket | 3 | Right-click a cow, mooshroom or goat with an empty bucket. |

What is Cake used for?
- Place it and eat up to 7 slices; each slice restores 2 hunger (1 drumstick) and 0.4 saturation
- The only food in the game that is placed as a block and shared with other players
- Feeds pandas and completes the 'The Lie' achievement/advancement
Variants
- Candle cakes: right-click a placed cake with a candle for a birthday-style cake; only one candle fits
Java vs Bedrock
The empty milk buckets stay in the crafting grid in both editions, so you get them back.
