'''Golden Strawberries''' (shortened to '''goldens''', '''goldberrys''', or simply '''gbs''') are special [[Strawberry|berries]], tinted gold
Upon picking one up, the player must finish the entire chapter without dying to collect it. Dying at any point will result in both the loss of the berry and the player being teleported back to the room where they first obtained it.
Golden Strawberries are meant to be some of the most difficult challenges in ''Celeste''. Upon collecting a golden berry, the chapter in the level select menu gains a golden tint for its specific side. Obtaining all 202 strawberries will give the entire save file (in the save select menu) a gold-tinted background.
Unlike practicing for [[speedruns]], obtaining a Golden Strawberry is all about '''consistency''', and being able to make it across a large number of rooms without dying once.▼
The easiest golden strawberry is in {{ch|lf=1|1a}}. This is followed by {{ch|lf=2|2a}}, as well as the C-Sides, owing to their short length. The B-Sides are harder because they bring both length and difficulty. Farewell is by far the most difficult in the vanilla game. You can attempt to {{Tooltip|golden|complete without deaths (some maps replace the golden berry visual)}} almost every [[Mods|modded]] map; some of them are significantly harder than Farewell and have only a handful of goldeners, or none at all.
▲Unlike
A [[winged golden strawberry]] exists in ''Celeste''; however, it is unrelated to other Golden Strawberries. Instead of requiring completing a level without dying, it requires completing {{ch|lf=1|1a}} without dashing at all<ref>You are allowed to dash by accident so long as you die before collecting a Red Strawberry or advance to the next room.</ref>.
== Trivia ==
* Prior to the addition of ''{{ch|9|lf=1}}'', there were 200 strawberries in total.
* On [https://www.neoseeker.com/celeste/Celeste_Collectibles Neoseeker Celeste Wiki], a [[Fun:A Cautionary note about golden strawberries|Cautionary note]] existed warning the players about the "statistical impossibility" of collecting all 25 golden berries<ref>It had been written on February 22, 2018, before the addition of Farewell, so it excluded the Farewell Golden Berry. Imagine how this "cautionary note" would have looked if it had existed then!</ref>. Five years later, it was removed from Neoseeker by Artubass. It became a meme in the Celeste community and is frequently referenced to this day.
