%%No citation* * AndYourRewardIsClothes: Items for customizing Kirby's appearance, such as hats and [[PaletteSwap different color schemes]], are among the rewards that earned at the end of each game. The higher you place, the more rewards you get.
* BalloonBelly: The more strawberries (each) Kirby eats, the bigger he becomes; his face, hands, and feet staying the same size can only mean this trope is in play. It's also weaponized in that a bigger-sized Kirby can roll faster and knock other players away with greater force.
*
BigEater: Who else but Kirby?! And While Kirby has always been one, this game puts special emphasis on it. For example, in the announcement trailer showing the opening cutscene of the game, Kirby can't care less about being shrunken down to boot, the size of a marble - it's the MountainOfFood his cake has become that has his undivided attention. In the game proper, he can get even get bigger!''[[BalloonBelly bigger]]'', with the main goal of each session being to eat the most strawberries throughout the game's run.

* LevelAte: All of the game's levels shown in the trailer are food-themed, with a cake, breakfast, ice cream, fruit, cake, candy, and cookie level being seen. More victual variety is offered in the game itself with levels themed after sandwiches and hamburgers, though most of the stages are still themed after [[SweetTooth sweets]].



* MountainOfFood: The level designs invoke this trope, as a normal-sized cake looks like a delicious mountain to a shrunken Kirby. On a smaller scale, the goals of the race courses are a trio of "strawberry mountains", with 50, 20, and 10 strawberries each.



* StealthPun: The music that plays in the last seconds of a battle is a remix of the Mint Leaf theme from ''VideoGame/KirbysDreamLand''. In other words, ''an after dinner mint''.

to:

* RollingAttack: The main way by which Kirby can knock away other player Kirbys. Certain Copy Foods such as Wheel offer a knockback boost to this attack (since the players don't take damage), and the more strawberries Kirby has eaten, the bigger and faster he gets and the stronger his roll attack becomes.

* SweetTooth: In the opening cutscene, the food that Kirby is about to tuck into before the Dream Fork shrinks him is a cake decorated with strawberries, and once he's shrunken, it looks like a MountainOfFood, much to his delight. Fittingly, most, though not all, of the stages in the game proper are dessert themed.
