Butter Building is the third level in Kirby's Adventure and its remake. It comes after Ice Cream Island and before Grape Garden. The music that plays in this level later appeared as a medley in Super Smash Bros. Brawl.

[edit] Level Intro
Kirby is seen casually stroling across one of the high-up parts of the tower. Just then, a Poppy Bros. Sr. comes along and knocks him to the edge of the platform. As Kirby struggles to get back up, the Poppy Bros. Sr. throws a bomb on his head and hops away. Kirby looks around, puzzled, but the bomb detonates seconds later.
This intro is the same in both versions of the game.
[edit] General Information
Butter Building consists of six normal stages. It is a large, tall tower reaching up very high through the sky. It is constructed in the middle of a forest clearing and is a huge cylindrical burgundy and yellow building. Kirby starts off at the base of the tower and must work his way up to the very top. In the remake of Kirby's Adventure, the building is changed from a grand, gilded castle to a ruined, crumbling tower. In Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land the building has small, unfinished towers at its base, and there are holes covered with wire grating on the decaying walls, signifying that the tower was never fully built or is now falling apart. At the very top of the tower, Mr. Shine & Mr. Bright await Kirby.
Also, Butter Building features every mini-game in the game. It has a Crane Fever room (replaced by a Bomb Rally room in the remake), an Egg Catcher room (replaced with an Air Grind room), and a Quick Draw room. It also has a Museum featuring Starman, and an Arena featuring Grand Wheelie.
[edit] Trivia
- The name "Butter Building" may come from the structure's yellow color in the original game. This is untrue in the remake, because it is now purple and maroon rather than bright yellow.
- The fight with Grand Wheelie is completly optional, as no door appears after Kirby defeats Grand Wheelie except for the door out and no item appears after the battle also.
