The Sweet Sweet Galaxy, originally known as the Cookie Factory Galaxy is one of the galaxies that Mario traverses in Super Mario Galaxy. It appears after the Hungry Luma next to the Terrace has been fed 400 Star Bits. It features moving platforms with cookie-cutter-shaped holes in them and appears to be made up primarily of titanic sweets and desserts. It takes place in the atmosphere of a planet, so if Mario falls through a hole, he will fall and lose a life. The stage also has Electric Fences which have to be jumped over; if Mario touches one, he will get stunned temporarily and lose one point of health. This galaxy is one of very few galaxies that has no enemies at all.
There are many inaccessible planets in this galaxy, and if the player uses cheat codes and flies to the sweets like cakes, ice cream, etc., they will discover the objects aren't solid.
The music of the Sweet Sweet Galaxy is a remix of the second athletic theme from Super Mario Bros. 3. (This remix is also used as the athletic theme in Super Mario 3D Land).
Planets/Areas
Template:Conjecturaltext
This is a very small "planet" in which Mario starts off as he enters the galaxy. It is extremely small and shaped like a very small square slice of cake. Mario must make his way across the cookie-cutter platforms to make it to the Main Planet.

This is a large planet made of cake with moving, chocolate roads with shapes cut out of them. Mario must run across these roads avoiding the holes to reach the Power Star. The roads range from a simple linear path to a curved path with big shapes cut in them.

This is a small platform where the Power Star is located. It has three layers that appear to be vanilla, mint chocolate and strawberry. It has a circle of strawberries that Mario can spin to get several Star Bits.

In the distance, there are fork and spoon planets. They are inaccessible, but with the use of hacking the player can reach them. The planets are solid but have no gravity.

Many small round multicolored planets are seen floating around the Main Planet in this galaxy. Though they cannot actually be visited by Mario, they appear to resemble large gumballs from a distance. If the player uses hacks to reach these objects, they will find they're not solid.
Missions
Rocky Road
To complete this level, Mario must pass four sets of moving platforms with holes and electric barriers all over them. The first set has just holes and two barriers, it is relatively easy to cross. The second section is the same thing basically. Only by the third moving platform does the ground change, it turns brown and begins moving diagonally. Mario must then cross the last straight, which includes two electric barriers. Some of the platforms are platforms with air in them and others are air with platforms between them. Once Mario passes this part, he will be able to claim his Power Star on top of a cake. In the pre-release versions of this game, this mission was known as Conquering the Sweet Cake.

Trivia
- The name of the only mission in this galaxy comes from the name of a dessert, rocky road, which is chocolate mixed with marshmallows, and in some countries, nuts or other ingredients.
- This galaxy is intended as a flashback to the mechanics of past Mario games to remind long-term fans that the unorthodox Super Mario Galaxy is still a part of the series.[1]
- This galaxy can be accessed without using the pink Launch Star left behind by a Hungry Luma via a glitch: after talking to the Hungry Luma to make the Launch Star appear, Flying Mario can be used to access the portal instead.
