History:
Years after Peach's disastrous foray into creating a Grand Prix Stage out of her great Birthday Present Mountains, Peach had the bright idea to morph the region into a Battle Stage. A strange departure from her usual, desert flavored Battle Stages, the Sherbet Rink was crafted out of the Ice from Sherbet Land, which of course doubled as a lovely Ice Rink.

Sherbet Rink is an amalgamation of many different former stages. Its background full of presents sort of resemble Ribbon Road, and the name and frosty terrain obviously recall parts of both Sherbet Lands from Double Dash and 64, the latter a bit moreso, although it could be most reminiscent of the Shy Guy Skating Section from Double Dash. The only other snow-themed Battle Stage goes all the way back to SMK's Battle Course 3, which is based on the Vanilla Lake stages from that game. The actual course structure is most similar to other Peach Desert Courses such as Tart Top and in particular, Cookie Land.
Still, the gameplay here ends up being unique. It is a very large, open course, but nonetheless there are many places to hide. Giant objects like stars and arches are scattered everywhere and the outer rim contains a circular road as its perimeter that's a decent hideout / getaway spot. Still, all the action converges in the middle here, like most SMK and Super Circuit Battle Courses. The perimeter may recall Skyscraper, but that was much wider and longer, and it really works more like the Wii Cookie Land.
