Cake — the ultimate reward. Seriously, it seems like in games one of the standard rewards you can give someone, other than gold, XP or power stars, is cake. It's sweet, it's lovely, and it's something you normally only get at birthdays and weddings. The perfect way to shrug off the stresses and worries of saving the world — cake. Can overlap with The Cake Is a Lie, as long as the promised reward is cake. And, of course, ever since the release of The Orange Box, the appearance of this Trope makes it inevitable that somebody will reference Portal's promises of cake. A subtrope of Food as Bribe, which is all food bribes that aren't cake. If the cake is your only motivation for doing something, you might be Just Here for the Free Snacks. If someone stole your cakes, then That's Terrible. This Trope page was supported by the Society For Cake Promotion Examples |

The Penguins of Madagascar: As part of King Julien's Day's festivities, there's a baking contest to make the official cake for the party. As Julien himself says, even if they can have the party without the cake, it wouldn't feel right. | |

In the So Bad, It's Good Hulk Hogan vehicle Suburban Commando, intergalactic bounty hunter Shep Ramsay adapts to the suburban lifestyle with a mix of grievous bodily harm and property damage... but it's all against assholes, and is thus rewarded with cake. Shep is initially confused that Earthlings eat the stuff, but then tastes it and promptly wolfs it down. | |

In The Simpsons, Lisa convinces Homer to go talk to Marge by telling him she's made a cake. It's actually just to lure Homer in to talk about his massive weight gain (the episode revolves around Homer becoming even more overweight to scam Mr Burns out of disability). Afterwards, he still has to be told there is no cake. | |

Cake can be found randomly in levels in most Kirby games. Each stage of Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards (except for boss battles) ends with the characters having a nice picnic, and you play a little minigame where Kirby can pick up some extra items. This includes a slice of cake that heals some of Kirby's health. In Kirby: Squeak Squad, a stolen piece of strawberry shortcake is Kirby's entire motivation. |

Super Mario 64: Mario saves the Princess for what must be the billionth time and what does he get? A bag of gold? 2^64-1 grains of rice? Grotesque sexual favors? No, cake. Cake that he was already going to get before saving the Princess... but that's enough. (Naturally, VG Cats has something to say about that.) | |

The Red Princess' story-mode in Playstation Allstars Battle Royale plays this completely straight: once the cake supply started to get low, the princess ventures off to new lands (aka, the other Playstation worlds) in search of more cake note based on her rivalry and ending cutscenes, she's somehow been mildly successful. Some of her battle quotes have her wondering why there isn't any cake involved in the fight, or when the other fighters will be having a snack break. | |

In Billy vs. SNAKEMAN, doing science may randomly reward you with Delicious Cake (as a shoutout to Portal). You can either consume it for an immediate 111 stamina boost (only once per day, but with no appetite cost), or share it with the village, in which case everyone gets an extra 20 stamina the next day. You also get a Trophy for sharing cake, so players are encouraged to do it at least once. | |

In an episode of Arthur, after the namesake character's father decided to make a cake for a theme party in his class, the resulting unusual-looking cake turns out to be a hit with the class, especially Mr. Ratburn. As Arthur gets his dad to keep making cakes for various events in order to make himself more popular, a Running Gag occurs as Mr. Ratburn appears at wherever cake may be present with the pretense of bringing a reading list for students. It gets to the point that he randomly appears at Arthur's house unprompted just for a chance to eat cake. This even leads to Arthur lying about his mom making cake just to get Mr. Ratburn away from his room. |

In Class of the Titans, presumably taking a nod from an actual Greek myth, one of the only ways to distract Cerberus is with cake. He loves cake. The heroes are amazed to learn this. | |

The Office: While temporarily in charge, Jim decides to celebrate all the office birthdays for the year on one day to cut down on expenses. The plan unravels when everyone demands their own favorite type/flavor of cake for "their" birthday portion. Except for Creed, who wants cobbler instead. | |

Super Mario Bros. Super Mario 64: Mario saves the Princess for what must be the billionth time and what does he get? A bag of gold? 2^64-1 grains of rice? Grotesque sexual favors? No, cake. Cake that he was already going to get before saving the Princess... but that's enough. (Naturally, VG Cats has something to say about that.) While this game predates Portal (the Trope Namer for The Cake Is a Lie) by several years, a similar situation happens at the beginning; Mario is invited to the castle by a letter promising cake, when he arrives, Bowser has kidnapped Peach and taken over the castle. At least Peach does make cake at the end in this case. Super Mario Galaxy 2 has Peach inviting Mario to her castle via a letter asking if he'd fancy watching shooting stars, whilst eating cake. Even Bowser himself gets one at the end of Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story. In Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars the cake is a two-part boss that tries to stop your party as they are ready to leave Marrymore. And then Booster comes and eats the boss cake just as the battle winds down because "you have to eat cake at a party". At the very beginning of New Super Mario Bros. Wii, the Koopalings kidnap Peach by ambushing her from within a huge cake and then trapping her with it. In Paper Mario 64, Tayce T. gives you a cake for returning her frying pan. You also have to bake a cake for an extremely fat Shy Guy. Or you could use the cake she gives you to the Shy Guy, but all to the same effect. In Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, two of the sidequestsnote introduce Goom Goom to a potential girlfriend and introduce the president of the Luigi fan club to "Luigi" have cake — the Couple's Cake and Choco Cake, specifically — as a reward. |

Craig of the Creek: This turns out to be the central theme in the episode "The Invitation." During it, Craig and friends are invited to a fancy tea party by three children. They are promised cake provided that everyone is on their best behavior and exhibits excellent table manners. It turns out that those hosting the party are just Faux Affably Evil jerks who purposely invite children they know don't get along so they can watch them fight and ask them to leave. Craig catches on quickly and decides to tough it out but as might be expected The Cake Is a Lie. It was nothing but a decorative centerpiece. | |

Darkly parodied in A Song of Ice and Fire. The surviving leaders of Meereen, whose level of misogyny borders on delusion, try to pressure the female warlord who has just conquered their city and killed their family members to go in a kitchen and bake them a cake, in accordance with their cultural ideals. They literally believe that women have no higher motivations than cake. Shockingly, Daenerys is not amused by this. Or their followup suggestion: that she wash a man's feet to prove her suitability as a "handmaiden". | |

Regular Show: The episode "Free Cake" is all about Mordecai and Rigby trying to get chocolate cake. They finally convince Benson to throw a birthday party for Skips, but in trying to get Skips they inadvertently interrupt a ritual that Skips needs to perform to live forever. When The Powers That Be threaten to drain away Skips' lifeforce, Mordecai is forced to give them the chocolate cake in exchange for letting Skips live. In the end, they get cake, only it's vanilla. | |

Tommy and Chuckie assume that a wedding is just a big party with a giant cake, and they spend most of the episode wandering around looking for said cake. | |

The Fairly OddParents!: There's a popular restaurant called Cake 'N' Bacon. In the episode where Timmy Turner decided to run for President of the Student Council, Co-Presidents Tad and Chad offered a huge cake to sway the voters into their side. It backfired on them as everyone who ate of the cake became too sick to attend school during voting day. The only people at school that day were Timmy and Principal Waxelplax, the latter of whom said she was only there because she's frosting intolerant. In "Mind Over Magic", Mr. Crocker tricks his students into being pawns in his plot against Timmy by saying he's holding a party with lots of candy and sweets. They were not happy when they found out the ruse. |

Cake is the focus of a string of related episodes, including the pilot episode, wherein the KND enact various absurd plots to secure the Delightful Children from Down the Lane's lavish birthday cake — which the Delightfuls not only refuse to share with any other children, but cruelly torture them by forcing everyone to watch them eat it. Ironically, the main characters never actually managed to get the cake, in most of the episodes it ends up being ruined in the process, and in one of the last episodes, the villains outright get away with it. The Grand Finale revolves around the cake being stolen by a third faction, and put up for grabs in a scavenger hunt. It's actually just a cover to test Numbuh One in preparation for his acceptance into the Galactic Kids Next Door | |

However, the episode wasn't about the cake, which was only mentioned when Wilson confessed his wrongdoing to Numbuh One (the Delightfuls immediately had him thrown in detention upon winning). |

Portal uses the big contrast between the hell that Chell is expected to perform through and the pettiness of the reward of Cake as humor. It exaggerates this pettiness with the Room Full of Crazy's over-dramatic exclamation of "The Cake Is a Lie", and sends up the concept of video games rewards in general. The whole cake thing came about in development, when the team sat down to decide what philosophy the game would be based around. After a while of thinking, someone suggested, "A lot of people like cake." | |

The Walking Dead (Telltale): In The New Frontier, when Javier first meets Joan and Clint, two of the four leaders of New Frontier, they're arguing about who's made the most desirable food, and asks Javier to settle it; Clint's creamed spinach (valuable nutrition) or Joan's Black Forest chocolate cake (luxurious, especially considering the extremely limited access to the fresh ingredients needed in the post-apocalypse). Most players tend to choose the cake, at least the first time around. Once Joans true nature is revealed, one of the dialogue options Javier gets when he's arrested is telling Joan the cake looked like shit. | |
