Complete Welcome to the Festival of Sweets in Princess Peach: Showtime! and collect the Sparkle Gems and ribbon. When you return after finishing the story, look for the three hidden Ninja Theets as well.
All Sparkle Gems in Welcome to the Festival of Sweets
In Welcome to the Festival of Sweets there are a total of 10 Sparkle Gems. Some are obtained by stopping the cake thieves, others are directly related to the back mini-games of Patissière-Princess Peach.
| # | Location | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | In front of the first gate | At the beginning, a bird steals pastries. Get him and stop him before he escapes. Then you will receive the first Sparkle Gem. |
| 2 | Area with two more cake thieves | Shortly afterwards, two more flying sourmen appear who steal pastries. Defeat both in time to get the second Sparkle Gem. |
| 3 | Ingredients area before baking | If you get the ingredients for baking, pay attention to the boxes on the right. Above or behind the boxes is the third Sparkle Gem. |
| 4 | Baking cookies | In the first back minigame you have to make as many cookies as possible for the teat. Once you have baked enough cookies, the progress indicator fills up and you get the fourth Sparkle Gem. |
| 5 | Baking cookies | Keep baking cookies and make sure not to leave any bowls for too long. When you reach the next level of the display, you get the fifth Sparkle Gem. |
| 6 | Baking cookies | For the sixth Sparkle Gem you have to be especially hard-working in the same mini-game. The more cookies you deliver, the faster you reach the final reward level. |
| 7 | Secret pose room outside the door | Before you walk through the next door, look to the right for a sparkling pose spot. Stand on it and press ZL or ZR. In the secret room is the seventh Sparkle Gem. |
| 8 | Decorating cakes | In the second minigame you have to decorate cakes. Works cleanly and distributes the decoration as completely as possible. With good performance you get the eighth Sparkle Gem. |
| 9 | Decorating cakes | If you continue to work carefully while decorating and fill the display far enough, you get the ninth Sparkle Gem. |
| 10 | Conclusion of the play | Finally, set the big spot on top of the oversized cake. Then the play ends and you get the tenth Sparkle Gem. |
Location of the ribbon
The Ribbon in Welcome to the Festival of Sweets is available from the Ribboner. For this you must save him during the early pastry thief passage.
| Rewards | Location | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Patissière-Ribbon for Stella | After the second Sparkle Gem | After you have stopped the two flying Sauermann and received the second Sparkle Gem, another Sauermann appears with the ribboner. Defeat him with Princess Peach’s band or sparkling power so that the ribboner is saved and hands the ribbon over to you. |
Be careful not to overlook the third thief. The ribbon is not in a later back mini-game, but is awarded directly in this early section.
Minigames: Baking cookies and decorating cakes
Baking cookies
In the first minigame you have to make as many cookies as possible with Patissière-Princess Peach. You are working on several bowls and you have to wait the right moment for the cookies to finish without burning or exploding.
| Tip | Declaration |
|---|---|
| Prefer bowls with several teats | If there are two teas in front of a bowl, this one is particularly worthwhile. It brings rapid progress and should be served early. |
| Pay attention to chocolate | Finish the work step just before the chocolate falls on the rainbow dough. If you wait too long, the shell is lost. |
| After the first progress, it becomes easier | Once you reach the first reward area, matching bowls appear more often. This allows you to get the other Sparkle Gems faster. |
Decorating cakes
In the second minigame, you decorate cakes. The aim is to cover the surface as completely as possible with decoration.
| Tip | Declaration |
|---|---|
| Not too sparingly decorating | You will not be punished for decorating something more generously. Be careful not to leave large gaps. |
| Working with the rotation | Some cakes turn. Move with the rotation instead of against it so that you cover the surface more evenly. |
| Continuing to work constantly | Princess Peach’s pace in decorating is even. Stay moving and distribute the decoration without long breaks. |
After Completion: Find 3 Ninja Theets
After completing the main story, you can do additional search tasks in already played plays. In Welcome to the Festival of Sweets you have to find the 3 Ninja Theets.
| # | Location | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Obliquely to the right of the start | The first Theet can be found shortly after the start. Go obliquely to the right to the wall and search the area there before you continue. |
| 2 | Before the sign to the garden | The second Theet hides from the sign leading to the garden area. Take a close look around there before entering the next section. |
| 3 | Left garden side | The third Theet stands on the third bush on the left side of the garden. Run the bushes one after the other until you discover it. |
Welcome to the Festival of Sweets
| Tip | Declaration |
|---|---|
| Stop thieves immediately | The first Sparkle Gems and the Ribbon depend on the fact that you catch the pastry thieves in time. |
| Checking boxes of ingredients | The third Sparkle Gem is not directly on the main path, but on the boxes in the ingredients section. |
| Pay attention to timing when baking | The cookies bring three Sparkle Gems. Works quickly, but finishes shells on time. |
| Use pose-place in front of the door | The seventh Sparkle Gem is in a secret room. Look right at the door for the sparkling spot. |
| Decorate cakes generously | When decorating, closed surfaces are more important than perfect lines. Works with the rotation of the cake. |
