This article refers to the doll; for the dessert, see shortcake. An original Strawberry Shortcake poster Strawberry Shortcake is a female doll made by American Greetings. She is made to smell like strawberries. This also includes a toy line of the character's friends and pets.

After the idea was presented to Bernie Loomis of General Mills and became a licensing entity, Fahrion designed a subsequent thirty-two characters for Those Characters From Cleveland (American Greetings' toy & licensing design division). Cindy Moyer Patton and Janet Jones designed other later characters of the classic Strawberry Shortcake line. Lyn Edwards was the editor of the line and along with brainstorm group developed the personality profiles and the story line and philosophy. The first doll was a rag doll directed by Muriel Fahrion and created by Susan Trentel, Fahrion's sister. The Strawberry Shortcake line of characters each had their own fruity or dessert-themed name with clothing to match, and they each had a dessert or fruit named pet. Like the Strawberry Shortcake doll, all the other characters' dolls also had hair scented to match their dessert theme. The characters lived and played in a magical world known as Strawberryland. During the 1980s, Strawberry Shortcake became a huge fad. At the time, there were several related products, such as sticker albums, clothes, a videogame for the Atari 2600 [1], and several other products. Several videos and DVDs were made featuring the characters. The Strawberry Shortcake line was relaunched in 1991 and again 2002 with a revamped look done by a different designer. In 1991, THQ started producing dolls of Strawberry Shortcake and friends, along with their pets. All of the dolls got a makeover, with new clothes, hair, and eyes. Videos and computer games have also been produced, along with clothes, and school accessories. Friends The following is a list of the original Strawberry Shortcake's friends and villains with their pets and release dates. There is a bit of "wiggle room" in a few cases, between the introduction of a character, and their release as a toy. For instance, Raspberry Tart (the character) was introduced in 1980, with the First Strawberry Shortcake TV Special, alongside Huckleberry Pie, Apple Dumplin', etc., but wasn't released as a Doll until the next year. The same is true of Strawberry Shortcake's nemesis, The Peculiar Purple Pie Man. Plum Puddin' also debuted in 1980, but would not get a Doll until 1984, by which time the character had apparently inexplicably switched genders, and was now a girl! Moreover, with the exception of Apple Dumplin', Apricot, and The Purple Pie Man, none of the other characters would come packaged with pets (or indeed, were even known to HAVE pets) until the 1982 releases, when all the earlier-released characters were re-issued with their animal friends. A couple of the below-listed characters weren't produced as Dolls at ALL, namely T.N. Honey, Raisin Cane, and Baby Needs-A-Name, who was only made as a larger-sized "Blow-Kiss" Baby Doll. Raisin Cane was introduced as the niece of villainess Sour Grapes in Issue #1 of Star Comics' short-lived Strawberry Shortcake Comic Book, and, as far as is known, was never considered for any kind of commercial merchandising.

American Greetings took offense to the parody and issued a cease-and-desist letter, to which the authors begrudgingly complied [2] - but not without making their indignation very clear [3]. This brief attraction is likely to have caused a damage far beyond what the removed piece could have done by itself; given that webcomic's immense popularity, American Greetings made itself look to many eyes as, much like Mattel, overzealous in the protection of their properties, to the point of being capable of trampling artistic expression and the fair use doctrine (which allows the unauthorized use of copyrighted characters in parodies).
