Trivia

  • The One Vanilla Cape is the first cape to be fully available on both editions (aside from the staff-only Mojang Studios Cape).
    • The Founder's Cape and the Pan Cape existed before the One Vanilla Cape and were later given to both editions. At the time, however, they were only on Bedrock Edition.
  • The cape is referred to as "One Vanilla" in the Dressing Room in Bedrock Edition.
  • Back in 2015, players were able to obtain a free code for the Minecraft: Windows 10 Edition Beta on the now-defunct Mojang website. Players who obtained Bedrock Edition via this method were eligible for the cape.
