This article is about the stage fromKirby's Dream Buffet. For the consumable item that restores health in some otherKirby games, seeFood.

Doughnuts is one of the eightRace stages inKirby's Dream Buffet. It is available at the start, and has theKirbys racing along numerous curved passageways atop wide doughnuts and narrow churros.

Overview[edit]

This stage makes use of doughnuts as platforms in many areas, which creates a lot of split paths and opportunities to fall into holes. In addition, there are many places where churros are used to create long narrow bridges that typically serve as side pathways. Otherwise, the stage makes use of flat plates to serve as wider trackways. Additional elements of the stage include whipped cream, cookies, cutlery, and wafer rolls. Puddles of chocolate drizzle are interspersed on some of the flatter surfaces, which can slow down Kirbys that roll into them.

Variants of this stage differ in the particulars, but they all follow the same basic structure and have the following sections in the following order:

  • A starting stretch consisting of large glazed doughnut platforms.
  • A wide flat plate surface with churros or smaller doughnuts on it, either acting as archways forDash Panels or spinning around to serve as obstacles.
  • A second stretch of doughnut platforms flanked by narrow churro bridges leading to the Crumbling Cookie Wall.
  • A tight turn leading to a long sideways stretch of road which then turns again to go forward through another section of arches or flat churros toward a second crumbling wall.
  • One last line of doughnut platforms with wafer logs rolling atop them leading up to a long churro ramp at the very end.

Variant details[edit]

The following are noteworthy details for each variant of this stage that cause them to differ from one-another. Note that each variant is named after the color of the background:

Red variant
This variant features doughnuts with mainly pink, purple, and pale frosting, and the churros are mainly orange and pink in color.
  • The starting area features a narrow churro bridge in the middle of the second doughnut.
  • Past the first arch is an area where Dash Panels can be accessed under stationary doughnut archways.
  • The area leading up to the first Crumbling Cookie Wall bends slightly to the left past rolling wafer rolls into a short downward sloping region flanked by two churro bridges.
  • The bend turns racers to the left, past a series of churro pieces and through some arches when turning back forward, then through another Dash Panel section with sliding archways before reaching the second crumbling cookie wall.
  • The last area features three large doughnut platforms with rolling wafer rolls before leading to the long churro ramp at the end.

Yellow variant
This variant features doughnuts with mainly chocolate frosting, along with others that are for the most part not brightly-colored.
  • The starting area features a narrow churro bridge on the right side near the first arch.
  • Past the arch is an area where Dash Panels can be accessed under stationary doughnut archways.
  • The area leading up to the first Crumbling Cookie Wall bends slightly to the left past rolling wafer rolls into a short downward sloping region flanked by two churro bridges.
  • The bend turns racers to the left, past a large muffin platform and through some arches when turning back forward, then through another Dash Panel section with sliding archways before reaching the second crumbling cookie wall.
  • The last area features two large doughnut platforms with rolling wafer rolls before leading to the long churro ramp at the end.

Green variant
This variant appropriately features doughnuts with mainly yellow and green frosting, along with green and orange churros.
  • The starting area features a narrow churro bridge in the middle of the second doughnut.
  • The area past the first arch features pieces of stationary churro instead of the Dash Panel arches.
  • The area leading up to the first Crumbling Cookie Wall bends slightly to the right past rolling wafer rolls into a short downward sloping region flanked by a churro bridge only on the left side.
  • The bend turns racers to the right, past another series of churro pieces and through some arches when turning back forward, then through one more section of long churros before reaching the second crumbling cookie wall.
  • The last area features three large doughnut platforms with rolling wafer rolls before leading to the long churro ramp at the end.

Blue variant
This variant has numerous colors of frosting to its doughnuts. The churros also come in multiple colors.
  • The starting area features a narrow churro bridge in the middle of the last doughnut.
  • Past the Kirby-themed arch is an area where Dash Panels can be accessed under stationary doughnut archways.
  • The area leading up to the first Crumbling Cookie Wall bends slightly to the right past rolling wafer rolls into a short downward sloping region flanked by two churro bridges.
  • The bend turns racers to the right, past a series of churro pieces and then into an open area where churro pillars climbing up to an optional pickup can be seen when turning back forward, then through another Dash Panel section with sliding archways before reaching the second crumbling cookie wall.
  • The last area features three large doughnut platforms with rolling wafer rolls before leading to the long churro ramp at the end.
