Disgusto Desserto is a member of the Spoiled Rottens from BotBots.

Disgusto Desserto believes that just because you might have gone bad, that doesn't mean you've gone bad. Body positivity, that's their deal. Sure, there's some mold and your pastry's gone a bit stale, but you can still be one of the sweetest Bots around on the inside!

Fiction

BotBots cartoon

Voice actor: Kyle Dooley (English), Bruno Magne (French), Róbert Katjár (Hungarian), Johanes Marsky (Indonesian), Ahmad Azizi Abdul Karim (Malay), César Marchetti (Brazilian Portuguese)

Living separately from the other Botbots in the abandoned Costa Pasta restaurant, Disgusto Desserto was the guardian of a mythical collector's cup, said to grant any who found it special powers. In order to make sure someone who was pure of Spark would be worthy, Desserto set up an excessive amount of trials in the restaurant to test them. Since Desserto was dealing with the BotBots, he quickly came to the realization that no-one worthy was actually going to come along, and figured he'd just give it to whoever showed up.

Eventually, that turned out to be Burgertron and Dimlit of the Lost Bots, who vowed to use the powers of the collector's cup responsibly. When they felt like it. Long past the point of caring, Desserto told them it wasn't his problem, and walked off to do something else with his life. The Lost Bots and the Claw Crusade

Notes

  • In the episode "The Lost Bots and the Claw Crusade" from the BotBots cartoon, Disgusto Desserto is presented very differently, appearing as an elderly male bot with no visible mold, as opposed to the younger moldy female bot depicted by the toy. In fact, the character was initially mistaken for fellow cannolo-bot The Plop Father because the international credits referred to them as such, and since the character was never referred to by name in the episode itself, no one had any reason to believe otherwise. Showrunner Chris Wyatt later clarified that the character was based on Disgusto Desserto, despite the differences.[1] Writer Greg Hahn also confirmed that the character was named Disgusto Desserto in the script, noting that he was always intended as such and that he and co-writer Alan Denton "would've taken a much different approach with a mafia guy" if the Plop Father was the caretaker instead.
  • Disgusto's squad wasn't given in the show. The "ULTIMATE Guide to EVERY Bot in Transformers: BotBots" video on the Netflix After School YouTube channel listed Disgusto with the Sugar Shocks instead of the Spoiled Rottens.[2]
