'''Tart Top''' is a battle course in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]''. It is a large circular pastry covered by many confections like green and red heart-shaped jellies, cream mounds, and berries. The only [[Item Box]]es are located high up in the air, accessible only when racers use the [[Dash Panel]] circling the cream mountain in the center. The creme mounds scattered all over the course function like the [[Bumper (Mario Kart series)|bumper]]s featured in [[DS Waluigi Pinball|Waluigi Pinball]] in that they bounce karts back, but with the added property of applying a unique pink icing (a recolor of the ink caused by the [[Blooper#Mario Kart series|Blooper]] item) to the racer's screen. The icing can be cleared by waiting for a short period of time, gaining a burst of speed provided by the Dash Panel or using a [[Dash Mushroom|Mushroom]].

In Shine Runners, there are seven possible spawning locations for the [[Shine Sprite]]s. Seven are distributed along the circular portion of the course, while another Shine Sprite can also spawn in the center where the item box ring is.

 

There is one [[Mario Kart DS#Missions|mission]] that takes place on Tart Top:

*'''Mission 5-6''': The player controls [[Yoshi]], who must collect 18 [[coin]]s scattered throughout the course within 45 seconds.
