Would that mean that the cake is not, in fact, a lie?
Or is it a deeper commentary on the realism of a representation of a thing, a la Magritte’s The Treachery of Images? The cake is a lie because it’s not a cake, it’s a representation of a cake.
I was watching the screensaver of a Big Buck Hunter arcade cabinet at the bar last night, and one of the minigames involved shooting roaches crawling all over a house. The cake in the kitchen was definitely the Portal cake.
Even though it didn’t come out until the later part of the 2000s, the Portal cake is probably the official cake of that decade.
Better yet, it’s based on a real black forest cake from a bakery near Valve

Doc, this is heavy.
Any black forest cake that’s not from Regent Bakery and Cafe is a lie.
There’s that word again, “heavy”. Is there something wrong with gravity in Portal?
I loveeeee a good black forest cake.
Agreed. The cake is a lie.
