How to Clear Donut Secret 2
The floor in this cave is slippery ice. When you try to move, your feet will slip at first, so you won't be able to move right away. When you stop moving, you will briefly keep sliding on the ice.
There is a Prize Block to the right. If you aren't Caped Mario, you can go to the right and stomp the green Koopa Troopa, then use its shell to hit the Prize Block. It contains a coin snake. You can control the direction of the coin snake with the directional pad buttons, so try to move the snake side to side and up and down (but don't let it hit the hills or walls or the floor) so it can continue to fill the area with coins.
After that, get on the hills on the right and jump to the right to get the Dragon Coin.
Then go to the right and use the Jumping Board to jump up and hit the Block. A Beanstalk will appear. Then jump up from the edge of the Jumping Board to jump up beside the Beanstalk so you can climb up it. At the top, hit the Block to get a Super Star. Take it, then fall through the Dragon Coin and two regular coins, and run to the right to hit the two Spike Tops.
Jump up onto the hill and go to the right to get a Dragon Coin. There is a Spike Top after that.
Go to the right to find another Dragon Coin between two hills. After the second hill, there is a red Koopa Paratroopa flying left and right.
Go to the right, and there are two more Spike Tops. Jump on the hill to reach the slope on the right. At the bottom of the slope, there are some pipes with Munchers between them. Yoshi can walk on them, but Mario can't safely walk on them unless he is invincible. The second and third pipe each has a Jumping Piranha Plant.
After that, there is a pipe hanging down from above. You can go up it to reach an area with a Prize Block that contains a Power Balloon. Take the Balloon and float to the right, through all the coins. Along the way, beware of the two pipes with Jumping Piranha Plants in them. If the balloon effect runs out, you will have to try to fall onto one of the Flimsy Lifts below. Afterward, go down the pipe on the right side of the area.
From where you land, there is a red Koopa Paratroopa on the left. Go to the left to find a Dragon Coin, as well as a Spike Top.
Then go back to the right and hit the Block to get a coin. Then there is a green Koopa Troopa followed by four Spike Tops, with four coins above where the green Koopa Troopa appears.
Go to the right, up the slopes, and you find eight red Koopa Paratroopas going up and down next to a green pipe. You can either stomp them all and go to the right when you reach the bottom, or you can try to jump and stomp the uppermost one while holding the jump button to try to jump over the top of the green pipe. Then go to the right and go through the Giant Gate to complete the level.
After the Level
The path to the east will open, and you can go down the pipe to reach Donut Plains 3.
