I thought it was kinda obvious that chef Saltbaker was gonna be the twist villain, but I never would’ve expected for him to redeem himself at the end through community service. That is very wholesome.

This boss is so beautifully animated. No wonder it took so long!

Not going to lie, when I fought the salt shaker I was terrifyed, not because of his constant spam of attacks but the actions he takes to do so, he essentially butchers living objects and brutally throws their once fearful remains at you all the while sporting a creepy grin as he does so, twisted doesn’t even begin to describe how crazy he is. Unlike the devil this is a man you didn’t expect to be so intentionally malicious after basically being your friend throughout the DLC. Glad he redeemed himself though.

this boss actually worked better execution wise as a final boss than the devil not just in terms of difficulty but rather the atmosphere of the fight itself...the Devil felt too cartoonishly goofy but Saltbaker was absolutely terrifying in each phase even the music was more menacing.

It's honestly incredible that a sentient salt shaker is a much more intimidating and frightening final boss than THE ACTUAL DEVIL.

honestly as menacing as chef saltbaker is in his evil form- the overall character development despite how semi-short this dlc is is profoundly positive.

Chef Saltbaker turned out to be the bad guy and I'm glad he redeemed himself after the battle!

This guy is a terrifying boss. His attacks in the first stage are basically him butchering his ingredients and sending their remains at you. The second stage has you attacking him with PEPPER, the companion to SALT, which makes you wonder why they hate him so much. The third isn’t that scary, but it makes you wonder if he was sealed in that glass body for a reason. Also, you know, the fact that he attacks with what is essentially his innards

Let's be real, we all expected a boss fight with Saltbaker in some way. I don't think we expected him to be a MURDEROUS LUNATIC, however. Seriously, his fight makes THE DEVIL'S boss fight look positively quaint.

Chef Salt Baker mentions that the secret ingredient is “heart and soul” at the beginning of the game hinting that thats what he will need

without a doubt the best worked boss of the entire dlc, it even feels like you're in a playable Disney movie

Everyone's talking about Saltbaker... but honestly, I just can't get over how wholesome the final chat between Chalice and the boys is.

This is just pure art. I can't even imagine the amount of effort it took to animate all that crazy stuff and make it work smoothly with the gameplay, the devs really put their hearts in this bossfight and it shows.

It’s nice seeing a villain be redeemed through hard work in the end. He did something bad, but he’s not like the devil. He just let power go to his head.

Now I understand why they delayed the cuphead DLC. Totally worth waiting almost half a decade for. The animation is just amazing. If you compare this boss fight with the Devil’s boss fight, you can see how much the creators improved on animation, almost as if it’s a whole different game!

I'll probably never actually play the game myself, but I'll admit the animation is phenomenal. You can tell the developers put their heart and soul into the production of this and the DLC.

The Final Boss Being Saltbaker is terrifying. him literally killing the fruits. Stealing the strawberries. Breaking himself off. It also felt sad that the last boss is your trusted chef. making you felt sorry for him after his lost. and the credits showing that he asks for mercy because he just follows what he knows. I'm glad that he redeemed himself and learning the goods from others. Becoming a true friend who makes best desserts alive.

It’s really a wholesome moment when the bad guy reflects upon his actions at the end by doing community service and becomes a good guy. Truly one of the greatest and happiest endings a person could ask for

The best thing is know the Saltbaker finally restored the Chalice's physical body in last picture

I unironically love how the fight with Salt Baker is absolutely insane with him growing in size and cracking open to fight you with m essentially his own blood and then the cutscene after looks like they just had some scuffle that left him just slightly dazed
