[[File:BuffetWorldCustomization.png|right|thumb|300px|The customization screen for Single Biome.]]
'''Single Biome''' (formerly known as '''Buffet''') is a [[world type]] or a vanilla [[world preset]] in which the entire Overworld consists of one [[biome]]. It is simple to customize, albeit very limited.
== Generation ==
Single Biome uses a single [[Dimension_definition#fixed|fixed]] biome source for generating the [[Overworld]] with the default [[Custom_dimension#noise|noise generator]]. Similar to the [[Default]] world type, this configuration generates a world with a bedrock floor at the Y=-64 lower height limit, and the rest of the terrain is generated on top of it. However, in contrast to the Default world type, the Overworld in a Single Biome world consists of only one biome.
The Nether and the End are unchanged from their Default world type counterpart. The Nether uses the multi-noise biome source and the End uses the {{code|minecraft:the_end}} biome source.
Additionally, players can override any dimension with the same fixed biome source generation like Single Biome using a [[custom dimension]] data pack.
=== Custom biome ===
Single Biome world type allows players to choose a biome that the world generates in the terrain of the Overworld. Biome choice determines things such as terrain, vegetation, generated structures, and to some extent, mob spawning. Single Biome worlds can be customized to use any one of the available biomes, using only that particular biome for the entire world. The player can choose any of the existing biomes, including the Nether and the End biomes, and custom biomes from [[data pack]]s.
This customization is available in the "Buffet world customization" menu, accessible by clicking the "Customize" button beside the world type selector in the world creation settings.
Using a biome from the Nether or the End to generate the Overworld results in a world with their structures and characteristics, albeit very incomplete. For example, [[warped forest]] does not generate any warped trees, but still generates fogs, particles, and [[nether fortress]]es. This is caused by a bug where the biome surface and terrain is different from their own dimension.<ref>{{bug|MC-239041||The surface in single biome worlds set to use nether or end biomes consists of grass blocks and dirt.}}</ref>
== Bedrock Edition (unused) ==
The code for Single Biome world is inside of ''Bedrock Edition'', but inaccessible through the game's UI. They can be accessed only by editing a world's code or via a third-party site. This code supports every biome within ''Bedrock Edition'', including [[Biome/Before 1.18|removed biomes]].
In ''Bedrock Edition'', Single Biome has few quirks such as:
* [[Mineshaft]]s and [[stronghold]]s generate in every biome.
*Single Biome affects the [[the End|End]] but not [[Nether]].
*[[Biome#Nonland biomes|Nonland biomes]] do not generate their terrain.
*[[Ocean]]s and [[river]]s when inside of a [[Nether biomes|Nether biome]] have a checkerboard-like pattern of water and lava.
*[[Structure]] generation cuts off at y-level 256 when in a Nether or End biome.
This feature is neither widely known nor is it fully developed, and is unlikely to be fully implemented into the game, but it can still be accessed.

== Trivia ==
*If the Nether or the End is used as the sole biome, then the sky would appear as if it is a mixture of the Overworld and the [[dimension]]s.
