Their name is German for "layer cake", and resembles "tortoise". Only two of them, [[Chef Torte]] and his [[Apprentice (Torte)|apprentice]], appear in the game, and work as the bakers in [[Marrymore]]. They attack [[Mario]] after he stops the wedding between [[Booster]] and [[Princess Peach]], which meant their [[cake (boss)|cake]] would go to waste. | ||

Despite their statistics, the Tortes are absolutely invincible and cannot be defeated. Their only attack consists of demanding that Mario stops before running up and punching him. Mario must instead attack the cake, known as Bundt, which will eventually come to life as the 'true' boss battle and scare the two off. | Despite their statistics, the Tortes are absolutely invincible and cannot be defeated.

==Trivia== | |||
*In the Japanese version, [[Chef Torte]] and his [[Apprentice (Torte)|apprentice]] both have the same speech pattern (often using「ノ」as a sentence ender). In the English version, only the former is shown to have an outward accent. Despite this, the quirk slips through in a few text strings, such as their shared [[Thought Peek|thought]]. This mannerism is likely an allusion to ''okama'' (effeminate male) and/or a play on「ノコック」(''Nokokku'', [[#Names in other languages|Torte]]).<ref>{{cite|author=philh0use|date=April 2, 2022|title=[https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1444089806?collection=avS2H8152RaH6Q&t=00h35m58s Super Mario RPG Ep. 5] (Mario RPG Translation Toast)|publisher=Twitch|accessdate=May 5, 2022}}</ref> Some of the remake's other languages such as Spanish give Chef Torte a lisp, with the Italian version additionally having him slip puns out of "''Tortolo''" (Torte), while the apprentice remains closer to the English version. | |||
