me too. When I started watching, I thought maybe she would do it in parts. So 3 parts milk, 3 parts wheat/flour, 2 parts sugar and 1 egg. That actually sounds pretty reasonable to me, but it was a lot more interesting that she put in the extra effort to figure out the actual amounts.
Back in college, one of my friends tried to make sweet rolls using only the ingredients from Skyrim. That recipe had the opposite problem when it came to eggs, in that they made up basically the entire thing. He did not speak highly of them
it does seem like the original version made using an ostrich egg or so might have come out a bit better. Then again, you can use the Minecraft cake as stairs, so the consistency of the final product seems about right.
As a Minecraft bucket can hold one entire block of water or lava, we know each bucket has a volume of 1000 liters. So the cake starts with 3000 liters of milk.

People who are good at business do the extra little things that keep customers coming back. The fact that it would seem Ann is genuinely a decent person only makes her brand more authentic, which keeps customers coming back. If you didn't like the person in the videos your wouldn't watch the videos, which means: a) personal brands try to be likeable and engaging, and b) people who are genuinely likable and engaging (and rigorous in this case) tend to have more authentic brand presence and more engagement from their audience. I'm not saying Ann or anyone else is necessarily cold and calculated and lying about who they are to get views. I tend to think she's probably a lot like the person we see on screen.

In an age that feels filled with misinformation and people being anti-science, your channel is so refreshing. I love your channel very much and the amount of work you put into it is simply mind-blowing. I can't wait to read your book!
dave watching his kids eat the good food for taste tests while he has to eat the 5 min crafts versions: my disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined
You allow one bushel of wheat to get wet and then leave it to start fermenting, from which you are able to harvest yeast (its more liquidy in this form as used in old brewing). Bread can be made with just flour, yeast, and a bit of water. So if you've got the moist yeast from the bushel you've allowed to ferment, that could count as the liquid (there will be some alcohol content, but that will cook off). There you go. Bread. :)
First breads were indeed just ground wheat mixed with water and put into a patty and baked. The yeast came later (IRL the Egyptians were the first ones to capture yeast for bread, but beer already existed prior to that point so we were capturing yeast for beer. But not bread.)
Considering Minecraft is a wilderness survival game, this is a really interesting look into how a cake would realistically be made with such limited ingredients. Its very fascinating and educational
I mean, looking at how Steve can eat raw meat, rotten flesh, and space fruit from another dimension that teleports you with little to no problem, a cake such as this one would be nothing to Steve.
You can tell the boys are growing up bc they're starting to get recruited into taste-testing the questionable stuff, Dave no longer has to suffer alone.
Just when you think Ann is going to turn down a challenge, she comes by analyzing the cows, grinds her own flour, and makes dozens of cupcakes... haha, AMAZING!
I feel like that one might be a bit more possible, might not taste too good without some spices but a whole pumpkin isn't too much meat and with an egg and some sugar you might get something close to a pie....well a pie filling since they don't actually put ingredients for a crust in the crafting table...
@@lacytaylor1501 pumpkin pie filling is basically a tasty pumpkin custard so I think that wouldn't be bad (as long as you ate it out of the pan lol), but I think the egg ratio would need to be changed for that to work because you need way more than one egg for that
@@sparksbet Pie pumpkins are pretty small, so one egg might not be _too_ off. Most pumpkin pie fillings include cream and spices though. I can't imagine it would taste good. Oh! And you could bake it in the pumpkin rind! People used to do that with pumpkin dishes all the time.
@@Wolfgang8-Y Yeah, usually it's about 2 eggs, around a cup or two of dairy, and flavoring stuff. With the rind acting as a crust it's entirely possible just won't have any spices in it.
My brother-in-law works on a farm and brings home the freshest, best tasting ever, 'raw' milk (unpasteurized) for FREE. I was brought up on the stuff but my sister can only use it in anything she personally won't/can't eat/drink as it makes her eczema flare up badly. Nowadays I have to be more careful how much milk I have 🙁
Subscriber: Lol, can you make a Minecraft cake? Ann: Can I make a comprehensive food science video with a fun pop culture tie-in, you say? Ab-so-lutely!
she baked *30 batches* of different variations of just ONE cupcake recipe?!?!?!? this lady is awesome, wow you learn almost every subject just from 1 of her videos
Even funnier thing about the volume of milk: the buckets of milk appear to be about as full as when the same bucket is filled with water. And somehow a singular bucket can transfer a whole block of water, and one block of water is nearly a full cubic meter. So technically the recipe could also could demand nearly 3 cubic meters, or 3000 liters of milk.
Minecraft logic amirite? Being serious though, you can't place down one bucket of milk so there's really no way to prove that beyond the fact that you used the same bucket and in game mechanics state that it should be filled to the brim
In the context of a survival game a dense solid cake makes sense. Gonna be heavy in your stomach, protein from the milk/egg and lots of sugar for energy. Perfect survival cake.
As soon as she started talking about baking several batches to find and list changes in the cupcakes I immediately subscribed, I was already planning on it due to how much she worked to get this recipe accurate but was waiting for the end of the video. Couldnt wait, this was great
I love how the older kid takes a judicious bite of the first cake, knowing it's going to be a little rough, but the younger kid takes a big ol' enthusiastic bite of the 'bad' cake, and just about unhinges his tiny jaw to take a chomp of the tall-frosting'd 'good cake'. Super cute!

I’m just glad that you used a lot of the correct Minecraft terms! Also the crafting table does have tools hanging on the side so like maybe you grind the wheat with the hammer:/
@@azraus2500 no,milk buckets contain way less milk than water or lava. If it has 3000 litres of milk then why we cannot place it? According to me milk buckets are equivalent to water bottles.?
I want you to try the ‘recipe through google translate challenge’ You basically have Dave put a recipe through google translate many times and then follow it! Put it through many languages like French and Hindi
Now is that with or without that frame count discovery where if you wait a *really freaking long time* the cake can still be counted as cooked properly?
Indeed! In fact, considering that there are actually berries in Minecraft now, it would make sense for the recipe to be updated slightly to include them.
@@reeyohontop A "mod" is a modification of the game's code, made by players. Modders are the people that develop the mods. Now, mods can do a number of changes to the game, but most of all, a popular category is the one that makes crafting items a more complex process involving more ores, machines, tools (all added by these mods) that ends up with special items players can hold as a kind of prize for their effort. For example, flour is made by putting wheat on a crafting table. That's too simple, so let's make a grinder. And the grinder needs special blades and some wood as well. The blades need to be made by forging the metal, or by casting it, so let's make a stencil to cast some iron. The resulting powder from running the wheat through the grinder needs to be sifted too, because it contains the flour but it's mixed with the husk. So lets make a sifter with thin metallic wires and a metallic or wooden frame. Or let's poke holes on a wooden or metallic bowl. Both of these would need special tools, one method requires a device for making the wires and a way of attaching them to a frame, the other needs a device that will poke holes on the bowl. That's just for the flour. Imagine, then, making all the needed ingredients for the second cake, from scratch. It would take ages, but the journey might be worth it.
I love how she does these videos. So many other RUclipsrs would just try the recipe and say it doesn't work and be done, but not Ann. The extra effort of experimenting until she finds a doable version takes her videos to a whole new level.
Meanwhile on some spiritualistic channel: today we gonna spawn a Wither using ingredients that used only in Minecraft: this is four blocks soul sand and three black skulls. At first let’s move to the nearest graveyard!
not to sound like a total creep but was anyone gonna tell me Ann lived on a farm or was I just supposed to find out by watching a hen push an egg out of its cloaca on camera?? is this news or am I just note up to date with the lore
I don’t know why but I always saw the the Minecraft cake as an old fashioned pound cake. A pound cake is called a pound cake because it used to be made with a lb of each ingredient like a lb of flour, a lb of eggs and so on. Not sure why I associated that with the Minecraft cake but to me it just kind of makes sense.
would a sourdough starter have allowed some amount of aeration? I realise it would be closer to a sweet bread loaf but it'd allow the cake to rise without adding bicarb.
The mad lass actually did it. I'm extremely impressed. Not only do I love sweets and baking, but I also love science and facts so this was actually very interesting and a treat to watch!

@@knotsnchains6907 well that was why I suggested parts. That way it's a ratio and could be applied to any measurement. Probably base actual measurements on the eggs, based on how many you'd need to actually bind it
yes, three cups flour, three cups milk, two cups sugar, and an egg. Sweet!! That's kinda how I've always thought of it, given how many slices you get to eat. Also, you can add vanilla, because it's vanilla minecraft ;)
I don't play Minecraft a lot but knowing that the recipe technically works given the limitation of ingredients you can put on a crafting table just makes it better. I just woke up and this is the first video I watched. I think my brain is ready to function.
It's so crazy that I was watching this channel in 2013 when I was learning how to cook and now it's such a huge channel, absolutely deserved I adored every video ♡ still love cooking to the day
"The only problem is we've only got 1 egg white" I was thinking a bigger problem was that in minecraft, you make the cake without baking in the furnance....
I remember back in beta days I had a mod that had like more realistic food, like you had to bake the cake in the furnace, gather more specific ingredients, had a couple more crafting table-like blocks like wheat grinder etc. It was really fun and I wish I could remember the name of it, or find something similar for current versions.
Ann Reardon puts soo much effort in her videos and also in her work off screen, like researching and experimenting, it´s so amazing! thank you, Ann, I appreciate your work so so much PS: imagine her doing a series about food in video games or so, like Breath of the Wild or something, but with all that scientific background she has
One thing I really love about this channel is how you not only take the time to try and make the recipes right, you also show us how to make our own at home, AND try to stick to the original as much as you can, if possible. That is something I admire with a passion. I'm super happy for you and your book, I hope things are going well for you! Have a lovely day, you're doing amazing work! (I also love when you're passive aggressive in some videos, it does get a nice good laugh out of me!)
In an older season of GBBO, they went and visited a historical home and did a Victorian cake recipe where you beat the batter for ages to work air into it, allowing gluten to develop and hold the air bubbles, I wonder if that method would work for this?
As I recall, Minecraft cake can survive being walked on and even _jumped on_ from a decent height, without altering its shape or edibility. ...so the first recipe is probably correct and working as intended.
Using unpasturized milk like it would be in game You can make 1 bucket into butter 1 into the cake and one into icing 1 sugar goes into icing 1 in cake and the wheat goes into cake Hell technically you could use wheat to harvest natural yeast
My daughter loves watching your videos so much! She’s in first grade (US), and her teacher mentioned Australia and she shouted, “that’s where Ann Reardon lives!” Her teacher thought you were someone we know personally. 😆
What I love about this video isn't just the fun of a minecraft challenge, but how Ann goes in depth into the science behind baking. her videos have really helped me to understand cooking better and why certain ingredients react the way they do, why things are prepared the way they are, how to get intended results, things like that.
I bought american measuring cups just so I can make the recipes I find on pinterest. But I keep struggling with cups of butter. How can you get butter into a measuring cup? Or when it says to use a stick of butter. Just use a kitchen scale for measuring! By now I know a cup is 223 grams of butter. Makes it so much easier.
@@kosmoboo 1 cup is 16 tablespoons and our standard sticks of butter are 8 tablespoons with measurements included on the paper the sticks come wrapped in.
@@kosmoboo as a Canadian who also uses cups for baking, I can say I do not actually use cups for butter. I have tried but it’s to much hassle and mostly unnecessary, I just use a spoon to pick it up and go off spoon measurements instead, a little more work to deal with measurements but better than trying to smooth down butter in a little plastic cup.

Now don't throw those eggs or else you might get four chickens
but the eggs are almost flat i think that would decrease the size a lot

I love the channel as much as anyone but can we be real about this? She puts effort into videos and books because that's how she makes a living. That's not a bad thing.
@@misterscottintheway i was just talking about how she took the extra step even though that wasnt necessary. she didnt *have* to do it again, because she explained it perfectly the first time, but she did, and i just wanted to point that out.
@@americanoice8347 I appreciate her as well. I just get a little annoyed when people start confusing the brand with the person. People who are good at business do the extra little things that keep customers coming back. The fact that it would seem Ann is genuinely a decent person only makes her brand more authentic, which keeps customers coming back. If you didn't like the person in the videos your wouldn't watch the videos, which means: a) personal brands try to be likeable and engaging, and b) people who are genuinely likable and engaging (and rigorous in this case) tend to have more authentic brand presence and more engagement from their audience.
I'm not saying Ann or anyone else is necessarily cold and calculated and lying about who they are to get views. I tend to think she's probably a lot like the person we see on screen. But I think it's important for consumers to be able to parse the difference.
@@misterscottintheway dude chill. If someone loves her and appreciates her. Then let them.
You’re getting annoyed for something that doesn’t effect you.
@@Leanne_w I think my tone was pretty measured and reasonable. Maybe I'm wrong but I don't think my response deserved a "dude chill".
I was under the impression that the comments section is a place where you open yourself to discussion and opinions. I certainly expect as much whenever I comment. It's a bit of a slippery slope to start saying that we can only comment on things that directly affect us personally.
I'm aware I can be a buzzkill. Believe it or not you're not the first person to bring that to my attention. So it's possible I completely missed on this one and just should have kept scrolling.
Anyway cheers

New challenge, make Minecraft bread using only the recipe in game. Have fun eating a mouthful of flour.
Lol thanks for making my day
You allow one bushel of wheat to get wet and then leave it to start fermenting, from which you are able to harvest yeast (its more liquidy in this form as used in old brewing). Bread can be made with just flour, yeast, and a bit of water. So if you've got the moist yeast from the bushel you've allowed to ferment, that could count as the liquid (there will be some alcohol content, but that will cook off).
There you go. Bread. :)
First breads were indeed just ground wheat mixed with water and put into a patty and baked. The yeast came later (IRL the Egyptians were the first ones to capture yeast for bread, but beer already existed prior to that point so we were capturing yeast for beer. But not bread.)

New challenge, make minecraft sugar using only the recipe in the game
Well considering if Steve is stuck on an island with the ingredients provided, the cake must taste like Heaven
Considering Minecraft is a wilderness survival game, this is a really interesting look into how a cake would realistically be made with such limited ingredients. Its very fascinating and educational
It would problably resemble a teaditional pound cake. No levening agents just some super whipped up eggwhites to add air.
@@Freakmaster480 souerdough is easy to obtain in the wild...
@@BlackDragonWitheHawk While I like sourdough cake it really isnt for everyone. Most older cakes would have just used whipped eggs for levening
I mean, looking at how Steve can eat raw meat, rotten flesh, and space fruit from another dimension that teleports you with little to no problem, a cake such as this one would be nothing to Steve.
Sure, wilderness survival...

Just when you think Ann is going to turn down a challenge, she comes by analyzing the cows, grinds her own flour, and makes dozens of cupcakes... haha, AMAZING!
Imagine Ann trying to make the pumpkin pie with a whole pumpkin, pile of sugar and an egg lmfao
I feel like that one might be a bit more possible, might not taste too good without some spices but a whole pumpkin isn't too much meat and with an egg and some sugar you might get something close to a pie....well a pie filling since they don't actually put ingredients for a crust in the crafting table...
@@lacytaylor1501 pumpkin pie filling is basically a tasty pumpkin custard so I think that wouldn't be bad (as long as you ate it out of the pan lol), but I think the egg ratio would need to be changed for that to work because you need way more than one egg for that
I would love to see her attempt to create cookies out of two piles of flour and six cocoa beans
@@sparksbet Pie pumpkins are pretty small, so one egg might not be _too_ off. Most pumpkin pie fillings include cream and spices though. I can't imagine it would taste good.
Oh! And you could bake it in the pumpkin rind! People used to do that with pumpkin dishes all the time.
@@Wolfgang8-Y Yeah, usually it's about 2 eggs, around a cup or two of dairy, and flavoring stuff. With the rind acting as a crust it's entirely possible just won't have any spices in it.

she baked *30 batches* of different variations of just ONE cupcake recipe?!?!?!? this lady is awesome, wow you learn almost every subject just from 1 of her videos
Even funnier thing about the volume of milk: the buckets of milk appear to be about as full as when the same bucket is filled with water. And somehow a singular bucket can transfer a whole block of water, and one block of water is nearly a full cubic meter. So technically the recipe could also could demand nearly 3 cubic meters, or 3000 liters of milk.
Minecraft logic amirite?
Being serious though, you can't place down one bucket of milk so there's really no way to prove that beyond the fact that you used the same bucket and in game mechanics state that it should be filled to the brim
Well technically, the block of water is just below one metre in height.
@@aarongibson9027 Kinda depends, its like a quarter of that if you use it to waterlog a stair block, dont know how smaller it can get tho

@@DyslexicMitochondria Hey bro! I watch your videos. Absolutely love them
G'day MEW99999 let's just cancel the breakdown, praying for a breakthrough instead.
In the context of a survival game a dense solid cake makes sense. Gonna be heavy in your stomach, protein from the milk/egg and lots of sugar for energy. Perfect survival cake.
Right! Reminds me of hard-tack, but like, sweet hard tack
Agree except it would need more eggs
It doesn't have much protein though. That's why she added extra eggs. It was sugar, flour, and cream. Very low in protein.
As soon as she started talking about baking several batches to find and list changes in the cupcakes I immediately subscribed, I was already planning on it due to how much she worked to get this recipe accurate but was waiting for the end of the video. Couldnt wait, this was great
Ann is like that one teacher everyone loves because she's good at teaching and making learning fun. :) 10/10
I love how the older kid takes a judicious bite of the first cake, knowing it's going to be a little rough, but the younger kid takes a big ol' enthusiastic bite of the 'bad' cake, and just about unhinges his tiny jaw to take a chomp of the tall-frosting'd 'good cake'. Super cute!
That was suspiciously detailed observation

Highly irrelevant, the first one is very handsome
I like to believe Ann played Minecraft enough to be able to find metal, build the bucket, collect and craft all the ingredients
poggers!!!
she's got water shaders going in some of that gameplay, I'm guessing it was a family effort.
craft* a bucket
The “Metal” is actually iron
You can do that it like 5 mins though
I’m just glad that you used a lot of the correct Minecraft terms!
Also the crafting table does have tools hanging on the side so like maybe you grind the wheat with the hammer:/
Makes sense

Some minecraft modders watching this video are going:
*”Write that down, write that down!”*
Why?
how would that work?
Indeed! In fact, considering that there are actually berries in Minecraft now, it would make sense for the recipe to be updated slightly to include them.
@@reeyohontop A "mod" is a modification of the game's code, made by players. Modders are the people that develop the mods.
Now, mods can do a number of changes to the game, but most of all, a popular category is the one that makes crafting items a more complex process involving more ores, machines, tools (all added by these mods) that ends up with special items players can hold as a kind of prize for their effort.
For example, flour is made by putting wheat on a crafting table. That's too simple, so let's make a grinder. And the grinder needs special blades and some wood as well. The blades need to be made by forging the metal, or by casting it, so let's make a stencil to cast some iron. The resulting powder from running the wheat through the grinder needs to be sifted too, because it contains the flour but it's mixed with the husk. So lets make a sifter with thin metallic wires and a metallic or wooden frame. Or let's poke holes on a wooden or metallic bowl. Both of these would need special tools, one method requires a device for making the wires and a way of attaching them to a frame, the other needs a device that will poke holes on the bowl.
That's just for the flour. Imagine, then, making all the needed ingredients for the second cake, from scratch. It would take ages, but the journey might be worth it.
Yeah maybe i should make a mod about it
i love how she always gives us the etymology of terms we might not know

I don’t know why but I always saw the the Minecraft cake as an old fashioned pound cake. A pound cake is called a pound cake because it used to be made with a lb of each ingredient like a lb of flour, a lb of eggs and so on. Not sure why I associated that with the Minecraft cake but to me it just kind of makes sense.
i mean, i once tried crafting the Minecraft cake with a traditional pound cake recipe 🤠

The crafting table has it's own special leavening properties. Also, chickens are huge in minecraft, literally, they fill a lot of that meter cube.
So maybe an ostrich egg would be better lol
Exactly what I was going to say, but an ostrich egg would probably be too big for that amount of flour. You might end up with a souffle.
Maybe a Turkey egg? Bigger than a chicken (I think) and smaller than an ostrich egg (probably). I know nothing about eggs lol
It'd probably just be easier to use enough chicken eggs to get the proportions right
I didn’t realise your book had food science, I thought it was just recipes. I’m definitely buying! Would love a whole book just on food science too!
I expected her to go the "each item is a part" so 3 parts milk, 3 parts flower(the wheat), 2 parts sugar and 1 egg for binding.
like 1 C milk, 1 C flour, 2/3 C sugar, 1 egg. big issue is that there is no mode of operation.. so there are no measurements and no instructions.
@@knotsnchains6907 well that was why I suggested parts. That way it's a ratio and could be applied to any measurement. Probably base actual measurements on the eggs, based on how many you'd need to actually bind it
yes, three cups flour, three cups milk, two cups sugar, and an egg. Sweet!! That's kinda how I've always thought of it, given how many slices you get to eat. Also, you can add vanilla, because it's vanilla minecraft ;)
Talking about not adding things cause it gets complicated
Modded minecraft: adds it all including the kitchen sink
😂😂
I don't play Minecraft a lot but knowing that the recipe technically works given the limitation of ingredients you can put on a crafting table just makes it better.

"The only problem is we've only got 1 egg white"

In an older season of GBBO, they went and visited a historical home and did a Victorian cake recipe where you beat the batter for ages to work air into it, allowing gluten to develop and hold the air bubbles, I wonder if that method would work for this?
As I recall, Minecraft cake can survive being walked on and even _jumped on_ from a decent height, without altering its shape or edibility.
...so the first recipe is probably correct and working as intended.
Using unpasturized milk like it would be in game
You can make 1 bucket into butter 1 into the cake and one into icing 1 sugar goes into icing 1 in cake and the wheat goes into cake
Hell technically you could use wheat to harvest natural yeast

I bought american measuring cups just so I can make the recipes I find on pinterest. But I keep struggling with cups of butter. How can you get butter into a measuring cup? Or when it says to use a stick of butter. Just use a kitchen scale for measuring! By now I know a cup is 223 grams of butter. Makes it so much easier.
@@kosmoboo ikr especially when they say soften butter, you can't even melt it and measure it!
@@kosmoboo 1 cup is 16 tablespoons and our standard sticks of butter are 8 tablespoons with measurements included on the paper the sticks come wrapped in.
@@kosmoboo as a Canadian who also uses cups for baking, I can say I do not actually use cups for butter. I have tried but it’s to much hassle and mostly unnecessary, I just use a spoon to pick it up and go off spoon measurements instead, a little more work to deal with measurements but better than trying to smooth down butter in a little plastic cup.
