Piñata Central
- For answers to commonly asked Piñata Central questions, see below.
Piñatas start out living the sweet life on Piñata Island filling up with candy and other treats. Once they reach maximum candiosity, piñatas are called to Piñata Central and dispatched from the Piñata Factory via the cannoñata to delight fun-lovers everywhere.
Factory requests
Once you become a level 14 gardener, Langston will start issuing factory requests to you for specific species to be sent to parties. If you accept the request, you'll receive a special crate and a generous time-limit to fulfill the request. If you don't have the required species, you can try attracting one to your garden (or hire Gretchen Fetchem to hunt one from the wild, if you've previously had one become a resident).
Candiosity
This is not to be confused with the happiness meter when they are in your garden. Piñata Central will give a request for a piñata, then you can pack up the needed piñata and it will be taken to Piñata Central. There they are put on the Candiosity Meter. Pinatas must achieve maximum candiosity before being sent to a party, and the Candiosity Meter is used to measure their current level of candiosity, which is an indication of how full they are with candy. In addition Piñata Central will send happy candy to your garden during this process.

Party
When your pinatas have been chosen by Pinata Central to join the elite ranks of piñatas everywhere and reached maximum candiosity they are sent off to parties around the world. A piñatas dream is to host a party and they'll be far more happy and valuable when they return. Your pinata(s) will be returned promptly, repaired and refilled with candy, along with a sprinkling of happy candy for other pinatas to enjoy!
Cannoñata
A cannoñata is a giant piñata cannon.
Piñatas blast off via cannoñatas from Piñata Central, a huge Piñata launching station in the center of the island to reach any party on any continent.
Gameplay Tips
- Starting at level 14 Piñata Central will begin island wide broadcasts to fulfill party requests.
- When the alert comes up you can either accept the challenge, or decline the challenge.
- If you accept the factory will give you a crate, similar to the Post Office crate.
- You will need to place the crate on land.
- Then press
to pack it, then hover over the piñata that Piñata Central needed and press 
. - If there is more than one piñata requested hover over your second piñata and press , until the order is filled out.
- Once the order is filled out your selected piñatas will enter the crate and go to their party. Your piñatas will return to Piñata Central and then they have to walk down the hill back to your garden. There is a path in front of the cannoñata that they return on.
This glitch ocasionally happens, after sending a pinata to a party. (It might be due to your garden reaching its pinata limit, while your pinata is away at a party. If hearts tend to disappear for you, try selling some pinatas first before filling a factory request.)
Unfortunately, there's usually nothing you can do. A "fix" is to try and crate the pinata and ship it to yourself, which would make it visible again, but most invisible pinatas can't be selected (or broken open). View thread
I don't get any factory requests from Pinata Central anymore.
This is probably related to the above 'invisibility' issue. The game hasn't yet showered your garden with candy rewards from the "previous" factory request, because it's lost track of the invisible pinata returning. If you can find it, and break it open, the current factory request will complete, and new factory requests will occur. View thread
