What if you could pull a digital item right out of your screen and eat it? I’m always asking “why not?” when it comes to flavor, so when I saw the ingredients for the Mythical Cake in Roblox—coconuts, bananas, and pineapples—I knew we had to make it real. It’s a flavor combination that screams tropical vacation, and honestly, it beats pixelated food any day.
This recipe takes the in-game crafting logic and turns it into a moist, dense, and ridiculously flavorful dessert. We are combining the sweetness of ripe bananas with the tang of pineapple and the richness of coconut for a cake that earns its legendary status. Whether you’re celebrating a gamer’s birthday or just want a slice of paradise, this Roblox cake delivers big on taste.
Why This Recipe Is a Critical Hit
Forget boring vanilla sponges; this cake is all about texture and bold tropical notes. It’s essentially a Hummingbird cake that went on a beach vacation. The crushed pineapple keeps the crumb impossibly moist, while the banana adds natural sweetness that sugar alone can’t mimic.
Plus, it’s a conversation starter. You aren’t just baking a cake; you’re crafting a “Mythical” tier item in your own kitchen. It’s the perfect way to bridge the gap between gaming and baking, proving that you don’t need a crafting table to make something epic—just a good mixer and a daring appetite.

Description
This tropical dessert brings the mythical in-game crafting recipe to life by combining ripe bananas, crushed pineapple, and shredded coconut. It is a moist and flavor-packed cake that bridges the gap between gaming and gourmet baking.
Ingredients
- 3 large ripe bananas, mashed
- 1 can (8 oz) crushed pineapple, partially drained
- 1 cup sweetened shredded coconut
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 3 large eggs
- 3/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease two 8-inch round cake pans and line the bottoms with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, mash the bananas until mostly smooth. Whisk in the oil, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until the mixture is emulsified and glossy.
- Stir in the crushed pineapple (retaining about half of the juice) and the shredded coconut until evenly distributed.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Gently fold these dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stopping as soon as the flour streaks disappear.
- Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans. Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cakes cool completely before frosting.
Notes
For the best results, use bananas that are heavily spotted with brown for maximum sweetness and moisture. If you prefer a sturdier cake for decorating, chill the baked layers in the refrigerator for at least one hour before applying frosting to minimize crumbs.

The Loot Drop (Ingredients)
We are ditching the “Bone Blossoms” and “Celestiberries” for ingredients you can actually find at the grocery store, but the spirit remains the same.
- Bananas: The browner, the better. You want them spotty and ugly for the best sweetness and moisture.
- Crushed Pineapple: Do not drain it completely! We want some of that juice to infuse the batter with acidity and tenderness.
- Coconut: Sweetened shredded coconut adds that chewy texture and distinct tropical flair found in the game’s “Mythical” recipe.
- Spices: A hit of cinnamon and nutmeg creates a warm backdrop that makes the fruit flavors pop.
- The Basics: Flour, brown sugar (for depth), eggs, and oil. We use oil instead of butter here to ensure the cake stays soft for days.
How to Craft Your Cake
Step 1: Prep Your Inventory
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease two 8-inch round cake pans and line the bottoms with parchment paper. This is the most important step—don’t let your hard work stick to the pan!
Step 2: Mash and Mix
In a large bowl, mash your bananas until they are mostly smooth but still have a few chunks for texture. Whisk in the oil, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract. You want this mixture to be emulsified and glossy.
Step 3: Add the Texture
Stir in the crushed pineapple (with about half its juice) and the shredded coconut. This is where the “Mythical” flavor profile really comes together. It should smell like a tropical cocktail right about now.
Step 4: Combine Dry Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Gently fold these into the wet ingredients. Stop mixing as soon as the flour streaks disappear. Over-mixing leads to a tough cake, and we want tender crumbs.
Step 5: Bake to Perfection
Divide the batter evenly between the pans. Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let them cool completely before frosting—warm cake melts frosting, and that’s a rookie mistake.
Riley’s Cheat Codes
- Toast Your Coconut: If you want an extra layer of flavor complexity, toast the shredded coconut in a dry pan for 2–3 minutes before adding it to the batter. It adds a nutty depth that plays beautifully with the banana.
- The Pineapple Factor: Fresh pineapple contains an enzyme (bromelain) that can mess with the structure of dairy and gelatin. Since we are baking it, fresh is okay, but canned is actually more consistent for baking. Stick to canned for a foolproof win.
- Small Batch Strategy: If you don’t need a massive two-layer cake, you can easily adapt this. Check out my guide on modern mini baking to see how to scale bold flavors down to size without losing the impact.
Mods and texture Packs
- The “Rare” Variant: In the game, the Rare Cake uses strawberries and apples. You can swap the pineapple for chopped strawberries and add a layer of apple compote filling for a totally different fruity vibe.
- Citrus Glitch: Want to cut through the richness? Add lime zest to the batter and swap the frosting for a citrus glaze. It reminds me of the brightness in my lemon rainbow cake, perfect for spring.
- Nutty Expansion: If you like crunch, add half a cup of chopped pecans or walnuts. It leans heavily into the classic Hummingbird cake style but keeps the Roblox soul.
Plating the Victory
Since this is a Roblox cake, presentation is key. I love frosting this with a simple cream cheese frosting, but if you want to go full “blocky” aesthetic, use a crusting buttercream and smooth it out with a bench scraper for sharp edges.
If you prefer chocolate over fruit-forward frosting, you can actually pair this with a rich ganache or the frosting from my yellow cake with chocolate frosting recipe. The chocolate-banana combo is a sleeper hit that surprises everyone.
Game Over (In a Good Way)
This cake proves that inspiration can come from anywhere—even a crafting menu in a video game. It’s bold, it’s fruity, and it’s unapologetically delicious. Whether you are baking for a squad of hungry gamers or just treating yourself to a slice of the tropics, this recipe is a winner.
