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 [[Doug Rattmann|Rattmann's dens]] as ''a lie'', sparking the {{w|internet meme}} "The Cake is a lie". {{Spoiler|The Cake can be seen at the end of Portal in a room surrounded with ''waking'' [[Personality_core|Personality Cores]].}}

The cake does not make any appearances in Portal 2, though is referenced once through a [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bxd7gdSt7dU#t=19m19s sticker on the fake door before GLaDOS takes Chell to her chamber], mentioning that she [[Media:GLaDOS fgbrvtrap02.wav|"...honestly, TRULY didn't think you'd fall for that."]] She also mentions that if she knew Chell would fall for the trap, she would have dangled a turkey leg from the celing.  This contradicts the common notion that GLaDOS may have forgotten about the cake after the destruction of the Intelligence Core.
