Back to Blocks ⏪

The Back to Blocks datapack from Vanilla Tweaks is a Crafting Tweaks pack that allows players to craft solid blocks back from their compacted or processed forms

🧠 How It Works

In vanilla Minecraft, many items can be crafted into blocks (e.g., quartz → block of quartz), but cannot be reversed once crafted.

This datapack adds recipes to revert certain materials back into their block forms. Examples include:

  • Quartz → Block of Quartz

  • Bone Meal → Bone Block

  • Wheat → Hay Bale

  • Sugar → Sugar Block

  • Glowstone Dust → Glowstone

  • Clay Balls → Clay Block

  • Redstone Dust → Redstone Block

  • Nether Wart → Nether Wart Block

  • Magma Cream → Magma Block

  • Blaze Powder → Blaze Block

  • ...and more

These recipes follow logical groupings and are accessible through the normal crafting grid — no stonecutter or special setup
