In Peach's Castle, the Princess encounters Gourmet Guy during one of her secret trips outside of her room. Gourmet Guy tells Peach that he is technically obligated to let the guards know he saw her wandering around, but he might look the other way if she went into the castle kitchen and baked him a cake. Peach complies, and, with Twink's help, bakes a strawberry cake, which makes Gourmet Guy ecstatic. Once he regains his composure, he informs Peach that the next Star Spirit is being held on [[Lavalava Island]], an island to the south. The Princess ends up being spotted by Kammy Koopa and escorted back to her room. | In Peach's Castle, the Princess encounters Gourmet Guy during one of her secret trips outside of her room.
