I was one seed short of a Star Path goal when I spotted Goofy waving at the Dazzle Beach sun. You feel that tiny pulse of panic — the duty reads vague, the clock ticks, and the valley keeps moving. I bought a single bag of seeds and watched the mission snap back into focus.
I’ll walk you through what counts, where to buy it, and the simplest way to clear the duty without planting a single sprout. You play, I’ve played; you’ll get this done fast.
Goofy runs a tiny stall on Dazzle Beach: What are seeds to grow a key pasta sauce ingredient in Disney Dreamlight Valley?
The Star Path duty that mentions a “key pasta sauce ingredient” is pointing at one thing: Tomato Seeds. Marinara is the obvious pasta sauce reference, and the game counts Tomato Seeds toward the Paw-fect Romance task in Disney Dreamlight Valley, developed by Gameloft under the Disney banner.

There are other sauce components in the valley — Basil, Oregano, Garlic, Onions, Cheese — but most of those are found in the wild or from restaurant pantries, not from seed packets. For the strict wording of this duty, only Tomato Seeds will register progress.
Where can I buy tomato seeds in Disney Dreamlight Valley?
Goofy’s Stall on Dazzle Beach sells Tomato Seeds consistently; that’s the reliable source. If you own the A Rift in Time DLC, you’ll also find Goofy selling them in the Wild Tangle. Think of that stall as a small lighthouse in fog when you need a specific item.
How many tomato seeds do I need for the Star Path duty?
The duty asks you to purchase 15 Tomato Seeds. Each bag costs 8 Star Coins at Goofy’s Stall, so you’ll spend 120 Star Coins total to clear the task. You don’t have to plant, grow, or harvest anything — buying is the whole objective.
Do I need to plant the seeds for the quest to count?
No planting required. The Star Path checks purchases, not crops. Buy the 15 bags, log the purchase, and the duty updates — like finding a single brass key in a junk drawer and realizing it fits the lock you’ve been staring at.
Stalls list prices in plain numbers: Buy seeds to grow a key pasta sauce ingredient in Disney Dreamlight Valley

Buy 15 bags from Goofy’s Stall (8 Star Coins each) and the duty completes. The reward is 25 Tokens to spend in the event — a tidy return for a short trip to Dazzle Beach. I recommend handling this early in the Star Path so you can use the Tokens toward whichever prize you want.
If you’re juggling platforms, the process is the same on Nintendo Switch, Steam, PlayStation, and Xbox; the in-game shops and Goofy’s inventory behave identically across versions. Community guides and outlets like Moyens I/O often post screenshots and confirmations when events roll out, which is handy when details feel opaque.
After you clear this duty, aim for other low-friction tasks to stack Tokens quickly: chat with a villager named after a flower, mine for black stones, sell green vegetables, or wear your Mickey Mouse ears during an interaction. Those micro-tasks add up fast.
Is paying 120 Star Coins for a quick 25 Token payout worth your limited playtime, or would you rather chase bigger event rewards and skip the seed run?
