'''Rock-Candy Mines''' is a mountainous location introduced in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'', also appearing in ''[[New Super Luigi U]]'' and ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe]]''. Its name is derived from {{iw|wikipedia|rock candy}}.

==History==
===''New Super Mario Bros. U'' / ''New Super Luigi U'' / ''New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe''===
Rock-Candy Mines is the mountainous sixth world of ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'', ''[[New Super Luigi U]]'', and ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe]]''. It is physically the smallest world, and it lies east of [[Acorn Plains]], [[Sparkling Waters]], and [[Soda Jungle]], southeast of [[Layer-Cake Desert]], [[Frosted Glacier]], and [[Meringue Clouds]], and south of [[Peach's Castle (world)|Peach's Castle]]. Rock-Candy Mines is a world filled with tall, pillar-like mountains in somewhat irregular shapes. There are also several train tracks acting as bridges in the world. There are ten levels in this world, with seven normal levels, two [[Tower]]s, and the [[Castle]] level; there are no [[Enemy Course]]s. The bosses of this world are [[Boom Boom]] with the ability to fly, [[Boss Sumo Bro]], and [[Roy|Roy Koopa]].

Uniquely, the world map contains several sets of red and blue [[Stretch Block]]s. These blocks correspond with red and blue switches on the map. Pressing a switch of one color causes the Stretch Blocks of the same color to extend and the Stretch Blocks of the other color to retract. The player can only cross gaps with an extended set of Stretch Blocks spanning the gap, so to reach certain levels, [[Toad House]]s, and a [[Bubble Baby Yoshi]], the player must first find and press a switch of the appropriate color. Gaining access to the switches is done by completing certain levels.

There are multiple ways to enter the Rock-Candy Mines. One is to complete [[Soda Jungle]]'s castle, [[Iggy's Volcanic Castle]] ([[Iggy's Swinging-Chains Castle]] in ''New Super Luigi U''), normally. The other two are to complete [[Skyward Stalk]] or [[Fliprus Lake]], the secret levels of [[Sparkling Waters]] and [[Frosted Glacier]], respectively (these are [[Beanstalk Jungle]] and [[Fliprus Floes]], respectively, in ''New Super Luigi U'').

The following enemies first appear in a level of Rock Candy Mines:
