Pie and Cake

[Necoxus 54]

I was thinking about some things in TFC, and thought how sugar has almost no use(I heard it can be used to make vinegar idk if this is true). Anyways and I also thought how most food in TFC we just eat directly after we harvest it. The only exception being meat, eggs, and the breads. So, we could use fruit to and dough to make pies, not all dough (mostly wheat, rye, and barley). You would mix the fruit with the dough to get pie dough(with something stating the type of fruit) that's placed inside a mold for baking.(pic below of the recipe i had in mind for the mold) You could bake this in a special oven the baking over for balance purposes it could be made using fire bricks like a regular furnace, but just for baking pies and such.(maybe it could be used to bake bread faster, however it doesn't need to be required for bread)

 

My idea for cake was kinda the same, you have some flour, water(or milk), eggs and sugar and mix that in a your crafting space to get a bucket of cake batter, that's then poured into the baking mold. then this is baked in the oven as well. I think we still should be able to place it like a regular cake, but when you right click you get a slice of cake instead of eating it directly.

 

thanks, for reading..please share your opinion on my idea below.

I agree that more advanced foods and methods of cooking should be added.

 

That said, it's very likely priority 0 on Bioxx's list

Yea, I'm taking a computer programing class, this upcoming school year, so if it doesn't get added, I may get a group together and try it myself. Not to mention I now have a notebook full of ideas for my own original mod.

 

I have a lot of ideas for food, and I think TFC would one of the best ways to tackle those, due to the decay rates and other features.

I believe you are looking for a cob oven(straw, clay, rock, fireclay bricks could be a better version later). That would actually be a pretty neat thing to see added. It takes a while longer to heat up, but stays warm for quite a long time. It makes far more sense to bake with one too, than to use a fireplace.

 

You could place meals and such in it, to keep them warm long after you cook them as well.

 

Conversely, an icebox, made from thatch, ceramic, and ice(which would decay), could be used to realistically keep perishable foods, for far longer.

I thought about the cost of the furnace, and this way it makes it to where the player needs a pickaxe and some other stuff to be able to make the "advanced" food, as these would last longer and give better nutrition (ex. the pies could give fruit and grain boosts)
