—Saffron,Super Paper Mario

Saffron is a character inSuper Paper Mario. She is a chef who runsSweet Smiles, a restaurant located on the first floor ofFlipside. She can cookMario and the other heroes various recipes if they bring her items. Her name comes from a spice of the same name that is grown mostly in southern Asia and is primarily used as an ingredient in various dishes. Its taste is recognized as "metallic honey" by some, which may parallel Saffron's sweet personality. Saffron's benevolence may also reflect that ofTayce T., the cook in the originalPaper Mario.

Saffron, like all other Flipside residents, has a doppelgänger who lives inFlopside; her name isDyllis. Some differences between the two is that Saffron will only cook recipes that require one ingredient, while Dyllis cooks recipes that require two, and that Dyllis has a more German accent. During the game, Saffron comes to Mario's aid by cooking him a Spicy Soup in order to revivePrincess Peach after she unexpectedly falls into Flipside.

According toGarson,Merlon was once in love with Saffron. She told him she would go out with him if he could finish aSaffron Special Galactic Meal. Merlon had finished all but a bit of parsley when he heard that aninjured girl had appeared in Flipside and rushed to her aid, forfeiting the challenge.
