Cooler Culinary Cake Crafting
Cooler Culinary Cake Crafting replaces the vanilla cake recipe with a multi-step process that starts from batter and frosting.
What it does
Cake making is split into stages. A bowl of cake batter is made at a crafting table from three eggs, one milk bucket and a bowl, and a furnace or smoker bakes it in about 10 seconds into an unfinished cake. The bowl is returned after each step, and the empty bucket that comes from the milk is returned as well, so the bowls and buckets are reused rather than consumed.
Frosting is crafted from a water bottle, four sugar and two eggs, and right-clicking the unfinished cake with it adds the frosting. A sweet berry then placed on the frosted cake completes it as a normal cake. The mod adds an advancement tied to the portal reference, and cutting the cake with a sword lowers the sword's durability by one point per slice.
The mod is published for Forge only, for 1.20.1, and runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. The code is under the MIT License, but the project is not open source in the usual sense of a public repository. Only the Forge build exists; the latest file is 1.0 for 1.20.1, released 2024-03-11.
Key features
Multi-step cake recipe
The one-step cake recipe is removed, and a cake is built from batter, baking, frosting and a final berry placement.
Reusable bowls and buckets
Bowls and milk buckets return to the player after each stage, so only the ingredients are used up.
Sliceable cake
Right-clicking a cake with a sword removes one slice, and a sword stronger than diamond earns the Serious Slicing advancement.
Slices recombine
Seven cake slices can be crafted back into a full cake at a crafting table, and each slice restores hunger and can be fed to a wolf.
