Location of the Cushion Cake on sublevel 1 of the Frozen Inferno.

The Cushion Cake is on top of a cylindrical pillar in the northwestern room of sublevel 1 of the Frozen Inferno. It is guarded by two Pyroclasmic Slooches, which should be defeated before attempting to collect it. Once the two Slooches have been defeated, the surrounding sizzling floor will be extinguished. A Flighty Joustmite can be spotted close-by, so you may need to defeat it as well. To collect this treasure, you can knock it down with a Rush from Oatchi.

Notes[edit]

Schnauz's notes[edit]

“Did you know this lumpy cake doubles as a cushion? What a clever idea, no? It's just the right amount of softness and firmness for sitting on. And when you grow hungry, you just take a bite. What a sweet treat it is too! Who knew a cushion could be so satisfying?”

Olimar's notes[edit]

“I nap in the pilot's seat sometimes, but a cushion like this would be a great alternative. The only weird part is that it's edible. Does that mean something or someone could eat it right out from under you? That's a major drawback.”

Louie's notes[edit]

“For eating, drinking, and napping! Just set it on the ground, fill the pockets with juice, lay down, and enjoy.”
