Patissiere Peach returns for her third act in Princess Peach: Showtime, and this time, she’ll have a little help with her baking as she tries to finally reclaim the show back from the Sour Bunch. Amidst decorating cakes, baking cookies, and discovering a new friend, keen collectors will also have five Sparkle Gems to seek out.

Ribbon

Just after you meet with the Patissiere Sparkla for the first time, you’ll see a nearby bowl for making cookies. Use it, and feed the cookies to the ribbon that is to the right of the purple door up ahead. He’ll give you a Ribbon for your help!

Ribbons are used to unlock new outfits for Princess Peach’s companion, Stella.
