Sweet Sweet Canyon

Sweet Sweet Canyon is the third race track in the Mushroom Cup of Mario Kart 8. Similar to Cookie Land from Mario Kart: Double Dash!! and Tart Top from Mario Kart DS, this course takes place in the land filled with pastry confections and desserts, such as cakes, cookies, ice creams, candies, donuts, macaroons, chocolates and so forth. Gingerbread Toads can be seen cheering at the start/finish line.

Course layout
The course starts out in the place where Gingerbread Cookie characters are watching, while Yoshis are situated on the other side, apparently cheering for racers. In front of the place where such characters are cheering lies a cave made out of cookies, followed by a cannon that launches the racers to the other side where there is a cake tower with soda waterfall. Along the way lies the pylons made out of ice cream cones, and racers will be driving inside yellow water made out of soda. After the soda section, racers can either choose left way or right way, which is colored blue and pink, respectively. However, both sides encompass the anti-gravity section, and will lead to the same way. Pink Piranha Plants, hiding inside green Pipes, will bite the drivers if they pass through the place where they are nearby. After that is some turns and a fall to the finish line.

Shortcuts
If one uses mushroom in the place where a Piranha Plant and a doughnut made out of chocolate are, one can skip most of the final turn before the drop.

The player can use a Mushroom on a chocolate part of the anti-gravity section.

Trivia

 * Sweet Sweet Canyon resembles Sugar Rush from the 2012 animated film, Wreck-It Ralph.
 * Sweet Sweet Canyon also resembles Layer-Cake Desert from New Super Mario Bros. U.
 * Sweet Sweet Canyon is the first and only course to involve an underwater section that isn't actually in water. Instead, it is orange soda coming from both the waterfall and from "Princess Orange" bottles.
