Butterscotch Pie

From Undertale Wiki

The Butterscotch-Cinnamon Pie (JP: バタースコッチシナモンパイ) (often simply the Butterscotch Pie (JP: バタースコッチパイ)) is a consumable item found in Toriel's Home after taking a nap. It fully heals the protagonist's HP in an encounter. It is replaced by the Snail Pie in Hard Mode.

Additional uses

  • Using the Butterscotch Pie during the fight against Asgore lowers his AT and DF.
  • Using the Butterscotch Pie during the Lost Soul fight against Toriel and Asgore helps to return their memories more effectively than ACTing.

Trivia

  • If the protagonist causes Toriel to go to her basement without going to sleep beforehand, they are unable to obtain the slice of Butterscotch Pie, as it will be too hot to eat forever.
  • The Butterscotch Pie is one of the three items in Undertale that can fully heal the protagonist's HP in one turn, and does so with no unique conditions. The Dog Salad can randomly fully recover HP, and the Bad Memory can only fully heal the protagonist if they have 3 HP or less.
  • In the True Pacifist Route epilogue, most of the pie has been eaten by an Annoying Dog.[1]
  • This is the type of pie Asriel and the fallen human attempted to bake for Asgore. However, they accidentally added buttercup flowers as part of the recipe.[2]
  • The Butterscotch Pie's abilities versus Asgore can stack. However, this is not observable through normal gameplay as the item can only be obtained once.
  • Consuming the Butterscotch Pie does not count as using a consumable in the game, since it only sets the HP to max directly[3] (alongside the Snail Pie[4]), whereas other consumables do since they use the healing script.[5] This also means that the requirement for Sans commenting on the protagonist never using a consumable at the end of the Neutral Route can still be fulfilled, even if the Pie was eaten (this can work with the Snail Pie, too, although not through normal means).

    The recipe asked for cups of butter...
