OK so I was eating my cake and said to myself, All this work didn't restore much of the hunger bar. What if we had to bake the cake, and as compensation, it would give you half a unit or even a whole unit more for each piece. Since there is also the inconvenience of having to place and not pick up the cake, I think this compensation would even out the cake as a more desirable food item.
A more convenient means to arranging the ingredients in the crafting grid would encourage the creation of cake to a far greater degree. One can eventually fill up a double chest with cake, but not without developing some minor carpal tunnel syndrome in the meantime.
It's the same way cooking food used to be like before 1.8; each individual piece had to be placed in the furnace while extracting the previous, and all the while wasting precious burn-time in the case of servers with low connectivity.

Hmmm I think that an easier configuration would not give such satisfaction for the achievement. It's my favorite achievement. However, we do agree that a cake is kind of a hassle for its relative inconvenience.
What if, instead of giving extra hunger points, what about healing 0.5 hearts per piece? (and also giving 1 hunger as well).
