'''Tart Top''' is a battle course in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]''. It is a large circular pastry covered by many confections like green and red heart-shaped jellies, cream mounds, and berries. The only [[Item Box]]es are located high up in the air, accessible only when racers use the [[Dash Panel]] circling the cream mountain in the center. The creme mounds scattered all over the course function like the [[Bumper (Mario Kart series)|bumper]]s featured in [[DS Waluigi Pinball|Waluigi Pinball]] in that they bounce karts back, but with the added property of applying a unique pink icing (a recolor of the ink caused by the [[Blooper#Mario Kart series|Blooper]] item) to the racer's screen. The icing can be cleared by waiting for a short period of time, gaining a burst of speed provided by the Dash Panel or using a [[Dash Mushroom|Mushroom]].

The only [[Item Box]]es are located high up in the air, accessible only when racers use the [[Dash Panel]] covering completely the cream mountain in the center. Hitting any one of the creme puffs throughout the course may cause icing to splat on the player's screen, much like the [[Blooper#Mario Kart series|Blooper item]], though not nearly as much or as long.

In Shine Runners, there are seven possible spawning locations for the [[Shine Sprite]]s. Seven are distributed along the circular portion of the course, while another Shine Sprite can also spawn in the center where the item box ring is.
*If the player drives up the center ramp and [[Hop (move)|hops]] just when the back of the kart touches the edge of the [[Dash Panel]], the player will gain more height. This trick can be done with various other Dash Panels in the game.
 
*Similar to the bumpers in the course [[Waluigi Pinball (DS)|Waluigi Pinball]], the berries and cream puffs can be used to dodge incoming items such as [[Red Shell]]s.

Tart Top is a battle course in Mario Kart DS. It is a large circular pastry covered by many confections like green and red heart-shaped jellies, cream mounds, and berries. The only Item Boxes are located high up in the air, accessible only when racers use the Dash Panel circling the cream mountain in the center. The creme mounds scattered all over the course function like the bumpers featured in Waluigi Pinball in that they bounce karts back, but with the added property of applying a unique pink icing (a recolor of the ink caused by the Blooper item) to the racer's screen. The icing can be cleared by waiting for a short period of time, gaining a burst of speed provided by the Dash Panel or using a Mushroom.

In Shine Runners, there are seven possible spawning locations for the Shine Sprites. Seven are distributed along the circular portion of the course, while another Shine Sprite can also spawn in the center where the item box ring is.
