After the first ascension.
Ascension is a mechanic in Cookie Clicker, which allows the player to reset progress but grants extra benefits on the next run, substantially speeding it up. The ascension screen can be accessed by the Legacy button, under the Info button.
Each ascension grants the difference between the old prestige and where x is the amount of cookies baked all time, or in other words, the cube root of cookies baked all time in terms of trillions.
A prestige level grants a +1% boost to CpS. This stacks additively for every prestige level.
Reincarnating will return to the main game with ascension upgrades, though Challenge Mode may be turned on beforehand, starting the ascension as though a new game had begun (upon ascending again, everything returns to normal).
Heavenly Chips
Heavenly Chips is the currency used to buy Heavenly Upgrades. These upgrades cost a varying number of Heavenly Chips, and are retained all subsequent ascensions. The ratio between Prestige Levels gained and Heavenly Chips gained is 1:1.
Upgrade Tree
These are the heavenly upgrades available to purchase. The upgrades purchased here will never be deleted (unless the save file is wiped, or through cheating).
Angel and Demon Upgrades
The regular upgrades Fortune #102 (1%), Fern tea (3%), and Ichor syrup (7%) also affect offline production. With all upgrades, offline production is 91% for 7 days, 8 hours. During offline cookie production, wrinklers are dormant and CpS is not withered.
For Synergies Vol. I, at least 227,824 Heavenly chips are required.
For Synergies Vol. II, at least 2,718,958 Heavenly chips are required.
For Chimera, at least 44,719,651 Heavenly chips are required.

- ↑ 8.0 8.1 8.2 8.3 All ascensions require at least +1 prestige gained to count.
- ↑ This refers to 1 trillion cookies in bank, not 1 trillion cookies baked this ascension. According to the source code, "this achievement is shadow because it is only achievable through blind luck or reading external guides; this may change in the future".
Before ascending, buy the Chocolate egg, and make sure to get as many achievements as possible (usually building achievements) for more milk next ascension. Keep in mind that the progress for popping wrinklers and reindeer aren't kept through ascensions.
- Making the first ascension at 365 heavenly chips allows for the purchase of:
- Legacy and How to Bake Your Dragon
- Heavenly cookies and the four boxes of cookies except for the tin of butter cookies, as the butter cookies are too expensive to be purchased in the second ascension.
- Heralds and Heavenly Luck
- Permanent upgrade slot 1 (insert the highest Kitten upgrade)
- Note: As soon as 1 grandma is purchased after ascending, there will be a great boost in CPS, making progression much easier and faster.
- After the first ascension, make sure to ascend at 2185 (or 2550 total prestige) for:
- Tin of Butter Cookies
- Starter kit
- Season Switcher
- Golden Switch
- A reliable guide for further optimal ascensions can be found here, though it is not as important to strictly follow ascension milestones at this point.
