- This article is about the race course in Kirby's Dream Buffet. For other instances of shortcake, see Shortcake.
Shortcake is one of the eight Race stages in Kirby's Dream Buffet. It is available from the start, and features a long and wide race track made almost entirely of cake with copious amounts of frosting.
Overview[edit]
This stage is among the more basic in terms of its geometry, featuring largely wide pathways with only a few tight 90-degree turns in places. The overall texture of the track is dominated by the cake frosting, which creates ripples and waves in places that can confound efforts to roll straight. There are also a few areas where there are high walls and ramps that need to be navigated past. While cake makes up the majority of the stage geometry, other decorative elements and structures include lit birthday candles, wafers, cookies, and cutlery.
Variants of this stage differ in the particulars, but they all follow the same basic structure, having sections in the following order:
- A wide and straight starting area with rippled frosting leading up to a series of rising cliffs with ramps and walkways, finishing at the first Crumbling Cookie Wall.
- A bend in the path leading past a gap with some short optional pathways that then leads up to the next Crumbling Cookie Wall.
- A second bend with another brief optional pathway which then leads to a straightway where a high road or cannon provides a faster path to the large elevated circular platform up ahead.
- A wide straight path with cookie wall sections moving back and forth hiding strawberry piles or mission fruit behind them, followed by the Strawberry Mountains at the end.
