What was the cake in Portal? ›

The cake is a Black Forest cake promised to Chell by GLaDOS during Portal.

The promise of Cake is introduced by GLaDOS as an incentive for Chell to complete the test chambers in the original Portal. It is referenced in many of the Rattmann's dens as "a lie", sparking the internet meme "The Cake is a lie".

Initially left behind as graffiti by Doug Rattman to warn that GLaDOS, the game's main villain, was deceiving the player, it was intended to be a minor reference and esoteric joke by the game's development team that implied the player would never receive their promised reward.

At the game's end, the cake is finally shown but is unobtainable. This led to rumors that players could access the room this ending cutscene takes place in and unlock a special ending.

In the events of the second game, Glados discovers she is Caroline (basically) and that Chell was her daughter. She becomes more protective and loving torwards Chell.

GLaDOS (Genetic Lifeform and Disk Operating System) is a rampant artificial intelligence computer system that controls Aperture laboratories, and is the primary antagonist for the Portal series.

Portal - Why was Portal 3 cancelled? Assuming Wolpaw's interview is accurate, the main reason Portal 3 has not yet been released is not because of evil intent, but rather, Valve itself. Although it is one of the most prominent gaming businesses, Valve is also one of the smallest and lacks the staff required to compete.

As spacecore mentions there is only one ending to Portal 2.

However, he appears in hidden areas of the facility to Chell, and later helps her defeat GLaDOS by replacing her program in the main control system with himself. But right when Wheatley is about to let Chell go free, he becomes corrupted and betrays her, accusing her of selfishly using him.

The cake might be a reference to Portal, where the cake topping uses the same logo as the Portal games, made by Valve, and the description supports this, by saying that the picture of the cake sure is real, meaning that the cake is not real, or a lie, which is a quote used mainly in the Portal Games.

Is there cake in Portal 2? ›

The cake is briefly mentioned in Portal 2 when GLaDOS creates a trap for Chell with a door labeled, "GLaDOS Emergency Shutdown and Cake Dispensary, Keep Unlocked." It is also briefly seen in the Ratman Den containing the ASHPD, in which a mural of GLaDOS attempting to offer Chell a slice of cake can be seen.

At the end of the game Chell escapes the facility after blowing GLaDOS up and Ratmann does as well. He sees Chell being dragged back into the facility by a robot and feels guilty so he goes back to save her. That's the end of Portal 1 and what happens after is the set up to Portal 2 and the game itself.

It is now used to describe a promised reward that can never be realized. In online dating, it can be used to describe catfishing and similar insincere lures.

The cake is a lie is a 2000s meme based on the video game, Portal, and used for a false promise, temptation, or trap deluding someone into their own ruin. While it quickly went viral, it's now joked about as a meme that has gotten old.

Complete answer:

The woman in the poem is shown as being naturally stingy, miserly, selfish, and cruel. Every time she picked up a cake to give away, it appeared to be far too enormous. As a result, she cooked a very little cake as thin as a wafer for Saint Peter.
