Here’s the recipe for Sweet Vegetable Cake, followed by instructions on how to procure each item.

  • 2 Honey
  • 4 Sap
  • 4 Stimulant
  • 25 Fiber
  • 2 Savory Root
  • 2 Long Grass
  • 2 Rock Carrot
  • A water skin, water jar, or canteen (at least 25% complete)

There are a few methods to get honey. You can tame a Queen Bee and set up a beehive at your base. Alternatively, you can use a Dire Bear‘s swipe attack to gather honey. 

Collecting sap is simple. Just take your tree tap, place it near a redwood tree, and wait awhile. Return to find your gathered sap. 

Rock Carrot, Savory Roots, and Long Grass can be cultivated at your own base in crop plots

Once you’ve got all your ingredients ready, craft or use a cooking pot. Place them inside, ignite the fire, and let the magic happen. It takes about 20 seconds to craft a Sweet Vegetable Cake in ARK: Survival Ascended.
