Bundt is an oversized living wedding cake found in the game Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars. Chef Torte and his apprentice have baked a cake for Booster and Princess Toadstool's wedding ceremony. However, Mario interrupts the wedding and rescues Toadstool, angering Chef Torte. Chef Torte and his apprentice then attack Mario and his allies. During this fight, Bundt is the only object that can be damaged. After taking several hits, Bundt starts to move. Chef Torte's apprentice tells his master this, but Chef Torte ignores him. When Bundt moves a second time, Chef Torte and his apprentice retreat. Meanwhile, Mario and his allies must defeat Bundt by extinguishing all five of Bundt's candles with physical attacks before hitting Bundt itself. Bundt can relight one candle each time it attacks, however, and it can attack multiple times in one turn. After being defeated, Bundt's top layers disappear, leaving the base layer, Raspberry, to fight Mario.

Trivia

  • Bundt is named after a bundt cake, despite it being a wedding cake rather than a bundt cake.
  • On the field, Bundt only has one layer, which seems to be its middle layer in battle.
  • Bundt's "candle" has separate stats internally, but only Bundt itself is targeted. Both the Shogakukan and Nintendo Power guides mention the candle as a boss enemy as well.[1][2]
