Golden Apple

Golden Apples are a rare item found in dungeon chests. They can also be crafted from red apples and gold blocks. Eating one completely restores the player's health.

Crafting
A golden apple is crafted from a red apple with 8 Gold blocks surrounding it:

Advantages

 * Golden apples restore all of your health.

Disadvantages

 * Red apples are very rare, and golden apples even more so.
 * Golden apples are not time or resource efficient to craft; making just one requires 72 gold ingots.
 * While cake only restores nine full hearts in total, it is much more time and resource efficient, making it a common choice over golden apples for space efficient healing.
