A cake has somewhat of a role in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and [[Super Mario 64 DS|its Nintendo DS version]]. The game begins with an invitation letter from [[Princess Peach]] to [[Mario]], which implies that she has baked a cake for him before she gets kidnapped. After Mario rescues her, she decides to thank him by baking a cake for him. The game's final scene shows a cake with two layers, with the words "Thank you" and statuettes of Mario and Princess Peach. The game stays on this screen until the player resets the system. In the remake, additional statuettes of the unlocked characters will appear on the cake at the end of the game. Unlike in the original, pressing any button on the end scene will return the player to the title screen. | |||

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.
