History:
Princess Peach was a just ruler of the Mushroom Kingdom, but her obsession with baking at times strained the nation's resources. When she decided to create a Battle Stage from scratch, she naturally chose to make an enormous cookie in the heart of Yoshi's Island. Not only was it difficult to procure the vast amounts of sugar, flour, and butter to originally create the massive cookie, but the stage would damage easily, cracking and crumbling under the weight of the racers. The course was popular, though, and it would return for the 2008 Battles. With many more drivers in this installment along with much heavier karts, the strain on the Cookie was tremendous. Eventually Toad swapped in an entirely new stronger Cookie Material mined from the Sweet Sweet Galaxy. Now located in the Mushroom Kingdom, this has held up far better, although the Princess was kept unaware of this maneuver.
Double Dash:
Cookie Land follows in the theme of tracks like Big Donut - a big concentric ring with a few mild barriers. There aren't very many dangers here, but that tends to make the track a bit less interesting. The action is very spread out and it's more difficult to find and target other players.
The course returned in Wii with little changes, but it's a much better course. The mere fact that Wii battles involve twelve drivers makes it much more chaotic and interesting. Cookie Land becomes one of the highest-scoring maps in this game, with an inner ring full of death and an outer ring full of maniacal drivers making passes to send shells into said inner ring.
