Sweet Mountain (DS)
Second level, Sonic Colours (DS)
Number of Acts: 2
Level theme: industrial
Boss: Captain Jelly (DS)

Sweet Mountain is the second stage of Sonic Colours for the Nintendo DS. A cross between a planet-sized bakery and a military-industrial complex, this tethered planetoid makes up part of Dr. Eggman's Amazing Interstellar Amusement Park. It is made of sugary baked goods such as cake, donuts, and pancakes, as well as other snacks.

The stage was one of the two first levels of Sonic Colours to be revealed, the other being Tropical Resort. One of the stage's landmarks are the rockets full of jellybeans that can be seen in the background. In this DS version, Sonic can use these rockets to reach higher areas, but in the Wii version, the rockets appear as obstacles instead. Whisk-wielding and laser-toting Egg Pawns also make their appearance here.

A world set high beyond the clouds. Feast your eyes on the delicious world of Sweet Mountain. Surrounded by lollipops and tasty treats, this is a world to remember.

Story

After Globotron is defeated in Tropical Resort, both Sweet Mountain and Starlight Carnival open up for Sonic, Tails, and Yacker. On traveling to the former, they run into their first Red Wisp, which lets Sonic use the power of fire. Further exploration into the Mission stages brings the friends across - to everyone's surprise - Blaze the Cat! Tails' inquiries as to how she turned up at the Park, rather than the Sol dimension, indicate that one of her Sol Emeralds simply started glowing, and bam!, here Blaze is.

Blaze isn't the only misplaced space time character to be found in Sweet Mountain. The second mission sees Sonic and Tails run into Silver the Hedgehog, muttering disapprovingly of an "Experience the future!" ride which he claims is grossly inaccurate. The third mission starts with Blaze and Silver teaming up in a partnership not seen since Sonic the Hedgehog (2006) - although it only lasts long enough for them to scare Orbot and Cubot away.

Finally, Sonic reaches Dr. Eggman, who whips out a mind-control cannon and hypnotizes Tails! As is often the case with Robotnik's machines, though, it doesn't quite work as intended, running out of juice after mere seconds. Not to let a mishap like that stop him from ruining everyone else's day, the fat man sets his boss robot, Captain Jelly, on the heroes.
