The Sweet Vegetable Cake is still one of the most valuable recipes in ARK: Survival Ascended. This dish replenishes 10% of their health within the following half-minute when administered to a tamed herbivorous creature.
In the worst case scenario, they’ll get 500 HP back, but in the best, they could recover 2100 HP.

However, sourcing all the ingredients and cooking stations can be pretty hard in a survival game like this one.
