"Slurpity-slurp. I'm so sweet, you can't lick me! Burrrp!"

- Cloud N. Candy

Cloud N. Candy is a boss in Yoshi's Story, fought at the end of Cloud Cruising. Her name, as well as the character herself, is a pun on "" and "." She is a colossal, buoyant, smiling cloud composed of fluffy yellow candy. In order to defeat Cloud N. Candy, a Yoshi has to lick her, which will pick off pieces of her, causing her to shrink until she is fully eaten. Cloud N. Candy jumps during the fight, damaging the player if they touch her, and as she gets smaller, she becomes quicker and more agile. Each time she is licked, the player will recover some health.
