[[File:Mint cake detail.png|left|100px|A mint cake.]]
'''Mint cake''' is a [[food]] item that, when eaten, will restore a player's run [[energy]] to 100%. Mint cakes restore more energy per consumption than any other item using only one click. [[Super energy|Super energy potions (4)]] can restore up to 160% of a player's run energy at 4 clicks, however, the mint cake is more instantaneous.

A mint cake can be obtained as a possible reward from the [[Gnome Restaurant]] [[activity]] and can also be obtained by exchanging [[Tangled toads' legs]] with [[Longramble]] during or after [[The Path of Glouphrie]] quest. This exchange can only be made '''once'''.

Before [[1 February]] [[2010]], mint cakes were very rare and valuable as it was rare to obtain them from the Gnome Restaurant activity. They were perceived as valuable items, used in [[junk trade]]s to buy items for a price much higher than that of the [[Grand Exchange|Grand Exchange's]]. However, on 1 February 2010, the chance of getting a mint cake reward from the Gnome Restaurant activity was increased considerably. Furthermore, they are now received in amounts ranging from 8-10 rather than individually.

Compared to super energy potions, mint cakes provide faster (instant) run energy restoration and are cheaper. However, super energy potions restore 160% run energy per inventory space compared to only 100% for mint cakes, so super energy potions are better when inventory space is an issue.

==Trivia==
*The Mint cake is most likely based on a real life food called Kendal Mint Cake, which is a highly sugary food that tastes of mint.
