—Princess Peach, Super Mario 64

Paper Mario[edit]

Cake
PaperMario Items Cake.png
Paper Mario description A tasty cake baked by Tayce T. Restores 15 FP.

In Paper Mario, if Mario reclaims Tayce T.'s Frying Pan from the Pink Station area of Shy Guy's Toy Box and returns it to her, the cook will prepare him a Cake. After Mario receives this Cake, Tayce T. mentions that she baked a Cake to win over her nameless, now late husband, rendering the making of Cakes troublesome for her. Of note is that this backstory is extremely similar to the one given for Wonky and his story about Zess T.'s Couple's Cake in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. Regardless, she will bake additional Cakes for Mario when he brings her Cake Mixes, which can be found in the Shy Guys' playground in the Blue Station area of Shy Guy's Toy Box (west of a hallway with Anti Guy). A Cake restores fifteen FP and sells for the most at Star Haven, where it can be sold for fifteen coins. Cooking a Cake is highly recommended, as it is a vast improvement over the single FP that the Cake Mix will heal.

In Shy Guy's Toy Box, Gourmet Guy, who is blocking a railroad crossing in the Pink Station area, craves for a Cake and won't budge until Mario gives him one. Mario must bring him a Cake baked by Tayce T., and when Gourmet Guy eats it, he will jump around the area before flying offscreen, clearing the crossing for Mario to progress (and dropping a Cookbook in the process).

During an intermission after Chapter 4, Peach is required to bake a Special Strawberry Cake for Gourmet Guy.

If Mario and his partner eat it, the latter gets sick, forcing Mario to fight his next opponent alone. If Mario decides not to consume it, Shellshock will eat it and get sick instead.

Goombella's tattle on Prince Mush in the remake revealed that he was not fond of cake, with it being implied that it stemmed from falling for Rawk Hawk's Poisoned Cake trick in the past.
