This article is about Ice. For the block that's used in the Ice Spikes Biome's generated structure, see Packed Ice.

Ice is a translucent solid block.

Obtaining

Ice can be easily destroyed without tools, but the use of a pickaxe speeds up the process. The block only drops when using a tool with the silk touch enchantment.

From generation

Ice can be found naturally in snowy biomes from frozen lakes, rivers, and oceans.

From Snowy biomes

See also: Ice farming

Water in a snowy biome will eventually freeze into ice if exposed to the sky from directly above, the light level immediately adjacent to the water block on all sides is less than 13, and there is at least one horizontally adjacent non-water block. This can happen at any time of day, and in any weather condition. If the highest adjacent light level is 12, an ice block will alternately melt and re-freeze when it receives a block tick.

Usage

Ice is slightly slippery, causing entities to slide, including items. This also allows for increased speed in water currents by placing the ice block under the water current.

When a non-full block is placed on top of ice, the block has the same "slipperiness" as the ice below it; although, if ice is placed below soul sand, it just increases the slowing effect of the soul sand rather than making it slippery. This does not work in Pocket Edition with slabs, but does with the closed trapdoors.

Ice can be used to create water if there is another block directly underneath the ice block, it will revert to water when broken. Ice will also melt into water if the light level immediately next to it on any side is sufficiently high (greater than 11), from light sources other than sunlight. If ice melts or is broken in the nether, no water will be produced.

'''Le Tricolore''' (French for ''The Tricolour'') is a joke item from [[Java Edition 23w13a_or_b]].

== Obtaining ==
One le tricolore and one [[la baguette]] is given to all players when [[French mode]] gets activated. Deactivating the mode will remove le tricolore from the player's inventory (but not la baguette; [[container]]s such as [[chest]]s are not affected).

Le Tricolore is not available in the creative inventory, but can be obtained by using the {{cmd|give}} command.

A '''sign''' is a non-solid [[block]] that displays text and can be placed on the top or side of other blocks. A '''hanging sign''' is a decorative block that also displays text, and can be placed underneath blocks or with a solid self-supporting bracket. The text of both types of signs can be customized with [[dye]]s and [[glow ink sac]]s.

== Obtaining ==
=== Breaking ===
Signs can be broken with any tool or without a tool, but an [[axe]] is fastest.
{{breaking row|horizontal=1|Sign|sprite=oak-sign|Axe|foot=1|item=1}}

A sign or a hanging sign also breaks and drops itself as an [[item]] if the block the sign is attached to is moved, removed or destroyed. However, a wall hanging sign will stay here if the block the hanging sign is attached to is removed.<ref>{{bug|MC-256501|||WAI}}</ref>

If a sign is broken while being edited, the player continues to edit the sign<ref>{{bug|MC-117815}}</ref>, although {{in|bedrock}} breaking the sign stops the editing operation.

=== Natural generation ===
An oak sign can be found in [[igloo]] basements. Spruce signs can be found in taiga [[village]] houses, as part of a chair.

=== Chest loot ===
{{LootChestItem|oak-sign,oak-hanging-sign,spruce-sign,spruce-hanging-sign}}

=== Crafting ===
[[The player]] can place six stripped [[log]] [[block]]s at the bottom half of the crafting table and place two [[chain]]s on the top-left and top-right slots to create hanging signs. This crafting recipe will create six hanging signs. Hanging signs can only be crafted with stripped logs or [[stem]]s; non-stripped wood cannot be used to craft hanging signs.

== Usage ==
Signs can be used to display text; they can be used to label storage, display information to other players or note areas of interest. Signs are also not destroyed by [[water]] or [[lava]] and therefore may be used to control the flow of these fluids.

=== Placement ===
==== Signs ====
Signs may be placed on the top or side of other [[block]]s (including semi-solid and non-solid blocks such as [[fence]]s, [[Trapdoor|trapdoors]] and other signs). To place a sign, {{control|use}} a sign [[item]] while pointing at the block the sign should be attached to, enter the desired text (or none), and click the "Done" button or press "escape" on a keyboard (or press × {{in|bedrock}}, {{xbtn|b}} on an Xbox controller, {{psbtn|o}} on a PlayStation controller, or {{nsbutton|B}} on a Nintendo Switch controller. Closing the virtual keyboard on a mobile device also exits the typing menu). To place a sign on a block that can be interacted with by the {{control|use}} control (for example, [[chest]]s, [[note block]]s, etc.), {{control|sneak}} while placing the sign.

Signs on the top of a block stand on a short post and face toward the player who placed it, in any of 16 different directions. Signs placed on the side of a block simply float there, even if the block doesn't make contact with the sign.

Even if placed on a vertical surface, a sign may not co-exist in the same block of air as any other item, despite not necessarily visibly obstructing eachother.

For more information about the blocks signs can be placed on, see [[Opacity/Placement]].

==== Hanging signs ====
Hanging signs can be placed in three different ways:
* Placing a hanging sign on the side of a block will result in it being placed with a self-supporting bracket, which allows it to float without any supporting block. This version can be placed in four different directions.
* Placing a hanging sign on the bottom of a block will result in the sign hanging below the block.
** If the block is wide enough, the chains holding the sign will be parallel. This version can be placed in four different directions.
** If the block is too narrow, the chains will meet together in a upwards arrow shape. This version is also placed if the player is {{control|sneaking}} when placing a hanging sign below a wide-enough block. This version can be placed in sixteen different directions.

=== Text ===
[[File:Oak Sign GUI.png|thumb|240px|Oak Sign editing.]]
Placing a sign opens an editor interface resembling a magnified view of the sign. Up to four lines of text can then be entered using a keyboard (hardware or on-screen). The editor supports limited editing, including moving the cursor and inserting and deleting characters. {{IN|bedrock}}, [[formatting codes]] can also be used to apply decorative effects such as color, bold, italic and underline to various bits of the text. Depending on the edition and platform in use, copy and paste operations may be supported and the editor may also support keyboard entry of Alt-codes for displaying Unicode characters.


Text can be added to the back side of a sign by interacting with the that side of the sign after placing it and editing the front.

Signs can be waxed by {{Control|use|text=using}} a [[honeycomb]] on it. Once waxed, a sign cannot be unwaxed or edited.

After placing and affixing text on a sign, a player can change the text color by {{control|using}} a [[dye]] on it. When colored with dye, the text color may differ from any color specified by formatting codes.{{Info needed|How does this work? Does the dye affect all the text? One line? One word? Does dye override all formatting codes, including font effects?}}

[[File:Glow Ink Sign with Orange Dye JE2.png|thumb|216px|Oak sign with glow ink and orange dye applied in {{JE}}.]]

A player can {{control|use}} a [[glow ink sac]] on a sign to make its text glow. The glowing text is not affected by lighting. The player can use a regular black [[ink sac]] on the sign to remove the glowing effect.

In [[Creative]] mode, the combination {{key|Ctrl}} + {{control|pick block}} on Windows/Linux, or {{key|cmd}} + {{control|pick block}} on macOS, can be used to copy an already-placed sign, including its text (with decorations), into the player's inventory.

A dyed sign facing east or west will have its text appear more saturated and bright than a sign facing north or south. However, it is actually the sign that is dimmer, because ''Minecraft'''s lighting engine uses side lighting to make the world appear less flat, but the text on signs is not affected by this.

{{IN|bedrock}}, inappropriate words or phrases in a sign's text are displayed as asterisks.

{{IN|java}}, signs can be created with [[Commands#Raw JSON Text|JSON text]], which allows complex formatting (colors, bold, italic, etc.), hover and click events, localized translation (for ''Minecraft'' technical terms, like "Redstone Repeater", otherwise translations must be provided in language files in resource packs), and the incorporation of scoreboard values into text. Use the {{cmd|data merge block}} command to create or alter JSON signs.

: Example: {{cmd|long=1|data merge block ~ ~1 ~ <nowiki>{front_text:{ color:"green", messages:[ '{"selector":"@p", "bold":false, "italic":false, "underlined":false, "strikethrough":false, "obfuscated":false}' , '{"text":"Second Line"}']}}}}

Signs can post the success count of JSON text hover and click events to [[scoreboard]] objectives. The objectives to be used can be specified by running the {{cmd|execute store}} command or by modifying the sign's NBT data directly with the {{cmd|data merge block}} command.

=== Interaction ===
Signs act as though they have a {{control|use}} action, so the [[player]] is unable to place [[block]]s or use [[item]]s while the cursor is pointed at them without {{control|sneaking}}.

Signs are destroyed and drop as an item when pushed by a [[piston]].{{Only|bedrock}}

Signs are non-solid and have no collision, so [[item]]s and [[mob]]s can move through sign blocks. Other [[block]]s (including other signs) can be placed on any edge of a sign.

[[Water]] and [[lava]] flow around signs. Lava can create [[fire]] in [[air]] blocks next to signs as if the signs were flammable, but the signs do not burn (and cannot be burned by other methods either, except {{in|be}}).

=== Fuel ===
Wooden signs can be used as a fuel in [[furnace]]s, smelting an [[item]] per sign.

=== Note Blocks ===
Signs can be placed under [[note block]]s to produce a "bass" sounds.

An '''item frame''' is an [[entity]]{{only|java|short=y}} or [[block entity]]{{only|bedrock|short=y}} that displays the item or block that is inside it.

A '''glow item frame''' keeps itself and the item inside it illuminated, even in the dark.

== Obtaining ==

=== Breaking ===

{{IN|je}}, an empty item frame can be broken simply by punching it. If the item frame contains an item, punching it drops the item, leaving the frame on the wall.

Because item frames are [[entities]] {{in|java}}, they can be broken in [[Adventure]] mode. They will also be targeted by commands using the @e selector.{{only|java}}

=== Natural generation ===

An item frame containing a pair of [[elytra]] generates in each [[end ship]].
[[File:BoatElytra.png|thumb|An item frame naturally generating in an end ship.]]

=== Crafting ===

|A1= Stick |B1= Stick   |C1= Stick
|A2= Stick |B2= Leather |C2= Stick
|A3= Stick |B3= Stick   |C3= Stick
|Output= Item Frame
|type= Decoration block
}}
{{Crafting
|foot=1
|Glow Ink Sac
|Item Frame
|Output= Glow Item Frame
|type= Decoration block
}}

=== Trading ===
Expert-level [[Trading#Cartographer|cartographer]] [[villager]]s have a chance to sell an item frame for 7 [[emerald]]s.

== Usage ==

=== Item display ===

[[File:Item Frame (map filled partial).png|thumb|150px|Item frame with partially filled map]]
Item frames can be placed on the sides of [[cactus]] blocks, [[pressure plate]]s, [[fence]]s, [[tree]]s, [[slab]]s, [[cobblestone wall]]s, [[chest]]s, [[door]]s, and all [[solid block]]s. They can also be placed on the top and bottom of these blocks. To place on chests and doors, the player needs to be [[sneaking]]. As item frames are an entity, multiple item frames can occupy the same block, although on different faces. It also allows non-solid blocks to occupy the same space.{{only|java}}

Players can place items in the frame by {{control|using}} the item. If a [[map]] is placed in an item frame, it enlarges to show the map in the size of a full block, with the item frame's location displayed as a green pointer on the map, pointing in the direction the item frame is facing. If this is done in the Nether, the green cursor spins around similar to the white cursor (players). If an item in an item frame has been renamed using an [[anvil]], it displays its custom name when the cursor is over the item frame. If the player places a block inside the frame, it is displayed in miniature half in, half out of the block. This can be most notably seen on stairs or slabs.

{{control|Pick block}} may be used on item frames by players in creative mode only, the control has no effect for players in Survival or Adventure mode. When the item frame is displaying an item, {{control|pick block}} picks the displayed item instead of the item frame.

Item frames can be placed on the lid of a [[shulker box]] that is positioned horizontally, but pop off when the lid is opened.{{only|java}}

=== Rotation ===
The displayed item can then be rotated by right-clicking the frame. Items displayed in the item frame can turn 45° diagonally, with a total of 8 possibilities (90° and 4 possibilities if it is a map), and the frame outputs a [[Mechanics/Redstone/Circuit#Power level|redstone signal]] depending on the rotation phase that can be interpreted by a [[redstone comparator]] (note that this rotation value is separate from the clock or compass rotation). As long as the frame remains placed, it remembers the orientation of the last item it held, and uses it for the next item it holds.{{only|java}}

=== Glow item frames ===
[[File:Item Frames Comparison.png|thumb|260px|Comparison between ordinary item frame and glow item frame in the dark.]]

When an item is placed inside a glow item frame, it appears to glow, even though it does not emit any [[light level]].

== Sounds ==
Item frames and glow item frames share the same sounds.

== Issues==

{{issue list}}

== Trivia==

*The item frame is based upon a suggestion on [[wikipedia:Reddit|Reddit]], like the [[ender chest]] and [[flower pot]].<ref>{{Tweet|dinnerbone|235747041286975488}}</ref>
*The item frame is the only entity to reference a block [[model]].{{only|java|short=1}} Because of this, the texture of the frame border is the same as the birch planks texture.
*Item frame is the '''only''' placeable item that can interfere with other non-full block entities.
*Due to the way layer textures are displayed in Minecraft, maps float on item frames, similar to how icons float on the map itself.

A '''melon slice'''{{efn|Known as '''Melon Slice''' {{in|java}} and '''Melon''' {{in|bedrock}}.}} is a [[food]] item that can be eaten by the [[player]].

== Obtaining ==

=== Block loot ===

{{see also|Tutorials/Pumpkin and melon farming|title1 = Pumpkin and melon farming}}

Melon slices can be obtained by breaking (harvesting) [[melon]]s using any [[tool]] or by hand. [[Axe]]s, followed by [[sword]]s, are the fastest tools for harvesting melons.  A melon drops 3–7 melon slices, when broken; by hand, using a [[tool]], or after being broken by the movement of a [[piston]], with an average of 4.64 slices per melon.

Breaking a melon with a tool enchanted with [[Fortune]] increases the potential number of drops by 1 slice per level, up to a maximum of 9 slices.

== Usage ==

=== Food ===
{{see also|Tutorials/Hunger management|title1=Hunger management}}

To eat a melon slice, press and hold {{control|use}} while it is selected in the hotbar. Eating one restores {{hunger|2}} [[hunger]] and 1.2 hunger 
[[Hunger#Mechanics|saturation]].

=== Crafting ingredient ===

{{crafting usage}}

=== Composting ===
Placing a melon slice into a [[composter]] has a 50% chance of raising the compost level by 1.

'''Drinks''' are a narrow class of consumable [[item]]s that can be ingested by the player in an extremely similar manner to [[food]]. However, drinks are not encountered quite as commonly as food is, and they are not nearly as integral to survival gameplay. Drinks can generally be distinguished from food from the sounds they make upon consumption, the lack of particles emitted by them, and the fact that they leave behind an empty container after consumption. They also do not require the hunger bar to be depleted, and do not affect hunger or saturation values upon use (with the exception of [[honey bottle]]s).

Drinks are drunk by holding {{control|use item}} while having the drink [[item]] selected in the hotbar or in the off hand.

'''Scutes''' are [[item]]s that baby [[turtle]]s drop when they grow into adults. They can be used to craft [[turtle shell]]s which can be used to brew the [[potion of the Turtle Master]].

== Obtaining ==

=== Mob loot ===

Baby [[turtle]]s drop a single scute when they grow up into adults, which is the only way possible to obtain the [[item]].

== Usage ==

Scutes can be crafted into [[turtle shell]]s.

=== Crafting ingredient ===

{{crafting usage}}

=== Repairing ===
Scutes are the [[repair]] items for the turtle [[armor material]], and thus can be used to repair [[turtle shell]]s in an [[anvil]].

=== Trading ===
Expert-level cleric [[villager]]s have a {{frac|2|3}} chance to buy 4 scutes for an [[emerald]] as part of their [[trading|trades]].{{only|java}}

Expert-level cleric villagers have a 50% chance to buy 4 scutes for an emerald as part of their seventh trades.{{only|bedrock}}

[[File:Eating Steve.png|thumb|right|150px]]
[[File:Eating Alex.png|thumb|right|150px]]
'''Food''' refers to any consumable [[item]]s that, when eaten, restore [[hunger]] points and hunger saturation points, and sometimes cause [[status effect]]s. They are essential to survival, as going without them eventually causes the player to starve, causing damage until reaching {{hp|10}} in Easy [[difficulty]], and {{hp|1}} on Normal. [[Hunger#Effects of hunger|Starvation]] damage kills the player in Hard and [[Hardcore]] Mode.

Food is eaten by holding {{control|use}} while having the food item selected in the hot bar or in the off-hand.

[[Cake]] cannot be eaten this way, and must instead be placed on a surface before being eaten.

With the exception of [[chorus fruit]], [[golden apple]]s, [[honey bottle]]s, [[milk]], and [[suspicious stew]]{{only|Java}}, food cannot be eaten when the hunger bar is completely full. In [[Creative]] Mode, any food can be consumed at any time.

All food items and ingredients can be stacked in the inventory slots, except for [[milk]], [[rabbit stew]], [[mushroom stew]], [[beetroot soup]], [[suspicious stew]], and [[cake]].{{only|Java}}

This page covers food items for players; blocks and items that can be eaten by other [[mob]]s are not included here.

== Hunger and saturation ==
{{main|Hunger#Mechanics}}
{{seealso|Tutorials/Hunger_management}}

[[File:Raw_and_Cooked_Chicken_Comparison.png|thumb|Raw (left) and cooked (right) [[chicken]]. Eating raw chicken can give the [[player]] [[food poisoning]].]]

[[Player]]s have two different food statistics, one of which is visible: The hunger level is visible, and the saturation level is not.

[[Saturation]] is the first statistic to decrease when a player performs energy-intensive actions, and it must be completely depleted before the visible hunger meter begins decreasing. Although the current saturation level is generally hidden, the player can tell that their saturation level is completely depleted if the visible hunger meter begins displaying a jittering effect.

Eating a food item replenishes a fixed number of hunger points and saturation points, based on the item. Some foods have a better ratio of saturation to hunger points replenished than others. Overeating the hunger bar does not overflow to saturation.

A player's current saturation level can never exceed their current hunger level. A player at a hunger level of 5, for example, can be at a maximum of 5 saturation. Food always restores hunger (raising the saturation limit) ''before'' supplying saturation. The most efficient use of food is to eat low-saturation food to fill the hunger bar, followed by high-saturation food to fill saturation.  While a few hunger points may be wasted when eating nourishing food when nearly full, eating nourishing foods on a low hunger bar wastes even more points of saturation.  Maximizing saturation increases the length of time (and/or the amount of damage healed) before the player needs to eat again.

=== Usage ===

Most foods can be eaten by holding down the right-click button with a food item in hand. It takes 1.61 seconds to eat most foods; dried kelp takes 0.865 seconds to eat. Additionally, a player can hold food in their [[offhand]] {{in|Java}}.

While eating, food [[particles]] form from the player's mouth correlated with their respective food item, and produces a munching noise. Eating also slows the user significantly.

Unlike other foods, [[cake]] has to be eaten by placing it, then right-clicking on its block form. Eating cake is instant and it has 7 edible slices, each giving {{hunger|2}} hunger and 0.4 hunger [[saturation]].

=== Nourishment value ===

Nourishment is defined as the ratio of saturation to hunger points restored. Foods with higher nourishment values should be eaten when the hunger bar is more full.

The "nourishment" table below can help by categorizing foods by their saturation-to-hunger restoration ratios. See the more detailed [[#Foods|Foods]] table for the exact hunger and saturation statistics of each food.

Ice blocks can be obtained in survival mode by harvesting them with a Silk Touch enchanted pickaxe. However, the ability for ice to create water in the Nether was removed.

Issues

Issues relating to "Ice" are maintained on the bug tracker. Report issues there.

Trivia

  • If a player rides a pig on ice using a saddle, the pig moves incredibly fast, making journeys across long frozen lakes easier.
  • By sprinting and jumping while on ice and inside a 2-block tall tunnel, it is possible to move 16 blocks a second, twice as fast as a full-speed minecart. By replacing the 2-block ceiling with trapdoors, it's possible to travel 1000 blocks in 54 seconds, or 18.518 blocks per second. However, this will drain the player's hunger bar extremely quickly at roughly 1 unit per second.
  • Sugar cane can be found next to ice, though when updated they will drop as items. This can be observed at random when running through a snowy biome.
  • If you try to set ice on fire with a flint and steel no flames will appear, but the flint and steel will still act as if it had been used (its durability will decrease slightly). The same thing happens with glass and the sides of non-flammable blocks.
  • Ice is not transparent in Pocket Edition. However, items/blocks that cannot be placed on transparent blocks such as ice (i.e. torches) still may not be placed.
  • If an ice block is melted by a light source, it will not update itself. This can be used to make "floating" water blocks without signs, ladders, pressure plates, etc.
