Introduction
Hello, fellow Heartopians! Are you busy experimenting in the kitchen but struggling to find the right ingredients? Cooking is one of the most vital activities in the game not only for restoring Energy but also as one of the most profitable ways to farm Gold and complete Achievements.
Fortunately, you can source your materials from three main outlets: NPC Massimo, the elusive NPC Doris, and Wild Foraging. In this guide, we will break down everything you need to know about where to find these items and how to harvest them efficiently.
Note: All ingredients listed in this guide whether purchased from NPCs or gathered in the wild are Placeable. You can use them as decorative items to beautify your home or kitchen!
1. Massimo’s Shop (Base Ingredients)
NPC Massimo is your primary source for essential proteins and pantry staples. He is usually located at Residential Street (Town), but remember that he will relocate during seasonal festivities.
Quick Info: Massimo has a daily purchase limit of 50 units for most base ingredients. We highly recommend stockpiling essentials every day!

2. Doris’s Specialty Shop (Weather-Dependent)
Doris is a unique NPC who appears only during specific weather conditions. Finding her is always a special moment because her stock is rare and essential for high-tier recipes like the Colorful Roll Cake.
- Doris (Rainy/Blue): Appears frequently during Rainy Weather. She only sells "cool-toned" sugars: Blue, Indigo, and Violet.
- Doris (Rainbow/Pink): The rarest version! She only appears during a Rainbow. She is the only source for all types of colored sugar, including the rare warm tones like Red, Orange, Yellow, and Green.
- Doris (Meteor): Appears during Meteor Showers. Note: She only sells furniture materials, not cooking ingredients.
