Cake Wars is one of the intermediate game on Mineplex, the objective is to eat the cakes of your enemies, all while protecting your own. Guarding your cake is very important as it allows you to respawn as long as it has not been eaten. Players have resources that they can gather to help them in game being: Bricks, Emeralds, and Nether Stars, which can all be used for purchases with the three villagers. Bricks spawn without having to get any points in the map, while Emeralds & Nether Stars require you to get a point in the map.

Trivia[]
- Mineplex had Cake Wars on Bedrock before it arrived on Java Mineplex.
- For a limited time, Bedrock version of Cake Wars had a solo mode, until it got permanently added on October 29th 2021.
- Despite it being made before Java, Cake Wars on Bedrock has less content than on Java, however, a big update for the game has brought the game some Java parities on 4th July 2021.
- Three of the maps were removed from Cake Wars Bedrock: Hidden Alcove (beta map), Plenty O' Fish for green and red teams not being able to cover their cake, and Wish for TNT traps being useless and not enough PvP area.
- On January 2022, a new limited time mode for Cake Wars was added called Cake Wars Mega. Its Cake Wars Squads but on Solo/Duos maps.
- During rare instances, it is possible for there to be 3 players in duos (5 players in squads) in one team in Cake Wars (due to a glitch).
- For April Fools in 2021, Cake Wars was replaced with Carrot Wars. While the core gameplay remained the same, NPCs were changed to have easter-themed designs. Additionally, instead of eating a cake to knock out a team, a 3x3 patch of carrots would have to be cleared in order to stop a team from respawning.
