The Mushroom Cup (transliterated as Kinoko Cup on one occasion[1]) is a cup in the Super Mario franchise, most notably appearing as the first and easiest cup in the Mario Kart series (alongside the Shell Cup since Mario Kart DS), where it exclusively features new courses. It is represented by a Dash Mushroom. In Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, the Mushroom Cup is one of four cups to be themed around a Mushroom, alongside the Golden Dash Cup, the Propeller Cup, and the Rock Cup.

Other appearances
The Mushroom Cup also appears in Mario Power Tennis and Mario Superstar Baseball. In Super Mario Strikers, the Mushroom Cup has four teams and three rounds. When the player places in the top three, the Flower Cup and Konga Coliseum are unlocked. A similar cup is the Super Mushroom Cup. In Mario Sports Mix, the Mushroom Cup is the first cup to be played in the tournament.
The Mushroom Cup also makes an appearance in Mario Tennis Open as the first cup of the World Open. It is played on the Mushroom Valley court, and the CPU difficulty is the easiest in the World Open. The cup is the only one to be unlocked from the start, and its matches have one set each for the starting round and semifinals, and three sets for the finals.
The Mushroom Cup reappears as the first cup in the COM Tournament mode of Mario Tennis Aces, and it uses the lowest CPU difficulty of all three cups.
Profiles
- Mario Kart 64 website: "The Mushroom Cup is made up of four introductory courses."
- Mario Kart Wii trading card: "Long-time Mario Kart fans may experience déjà vu when checking out the first two tracks of the Mushroom Cup. Luigi Circuit looks a lot like Luigi's tracks from other Mario Kart games and Moo Moo Meadows harkens back to Moo Moo Farm. But rest assured, the layouts are new."

Trivia
- The Mushroom Cup has never had a snow or ice-themed course.
- All of the Mushroom Cup's courses from Mario Kart 7 have reappeared as classic courses in Mario Kart Tour, and have been available since said game's launch.
- In Mario Kart 7, the Mushroom Cup is the only nitro cup to not have a course split into three sections instead of laps: the Flower Cup has Wuhu Loop, the Star Cup has Maka Wuhu, and the Special Cup has Rainbow Road.
