Carbon Costume

Raspberry Torte (voiced by Ingrid Nilson) is a character from the Strawberry Shortcake franchise.  Originally known as Raspberry Tart, she picks up her role in the 2009 reboot of the series as owner of the Fresh Fashions boutique and a friend of Strawberry Shortcake.  Raspberry Torte has bright pink hair and wears green and pink clothes reminiscent of the berry that gives her her name.  Finding an exact match for her pink and green dress would be tough, so layer a green shirt under a pink dress and bolero to achieve a similar look.  Finding her magenta Mary Jane shoes might also be tricky, so focus on finding a pair of shoes that match the aesthetic as closely as possible.  Hot pink t-straps or a pair of pink flats can both do the trick.

Cherry Jam is a character in Strawberry Shortcake. She’s the newest resident in Berry Bitty City. As a former pop star in the big city, people might assume she’s a diva, but she’s actually very sweet and friendly. She moved to Berry Bitty City for a simple life out of the spotlight. Now she works as a music teacher. She has a pet dog named Chinnapup. Her closest friends are Strawberry Shortcake and Plum Pudding.

Orange Blossom is a character in Strawberry Shortcake. She appears in all iterations of the series. Joyful and selfless, she likes making others happy. On the other hand, she’s quite shy and sensitive. Orange loves animals and plants with a deep compassion for taking care of our planet.  Her closest friends are Strawberry Shortcake and Ginger Snaps. Layer the t-shirt over the yellow tank top with the white belt.

Plum Pudding is a character from Strawberry Shortcake, namely in Strawberry Shortcake’s Berry Bitty Adventures. She is good friends with Strawberry Shortcake. Plum loves to dance and move around. While she can be fiercely competitive, she cares more about that her friends have a good time.

Blueberry Muffin is a character in Strawberry Shortcake and a close friend of the titular character. She works at Blueberry Books, so she’s usually seen carrying or reading a book. With her wit and knack for knowledge, Blueberry is the smartest girl of the group. She is very skilled at planning, scheduling, and organizing things.

Vic is all about the loud and the obnoxious. Whether it’s his suits, his personality, or his heists, it’s all the same for Vic. He’s stolen Alcatraz and Carmen Island, all for his boss, Carmen Sandiego.

To get Vic’s look you’re going to need a few key, loud pieces. Temporary black hair dye also serves as pomade to dye and slick back your hair. An eyeliner pencil can draw on his thin mustache while a gold chain is his main accent. Add in a lime green shirt, plaid polyester suit, and black shoes, and you’re ready to steal yourself an island of your own. Although you shouldn’t. There’s a reason Vic always ends up in jail.

Peppermint Fizz is a character in the Strawberry Shortcake television series. At first, she is an antiheroine, as her determination and stubbornness drives her to cheat to get her way. Her demeanor changes once Raspberry Torte and Lime Light become the new bullies, and Peppermint redeems herself. As a result, she becomes best friends with Strawberry Shortcake. She is also friends with the girls in year four. Her pet is a chameleon named Cola. The animation featured in this costume guide is from the 2007 version. Tie the wig back into a ponytail with a red scrunchie. To finish the look, apply pink blush to the apples of your cheeks.

Strawberry Shortcake has been a childhood staple since her introduction in the 1980s. Her Berry Bitty line was part of the 2009 relaunch and led not only to new toys and movies but to a whole new look for Strawberry Shortcake and her friends. In this version, Strawberry Shortcake has traded her bonnet for a cap and her dress for a skirt, top, and striped tights.

Most of the costume is easy to put together, but the line was short-lived and finding the hate premade is next to impossible. Thankfully, it is fairly easy to recreate. All you need is a pink newsboy cap, some green paint for the bill, and pink felt dots to cut into ovals for the strawberry seeds. A white ribbon just above the bill of the hat completes the look. As long as you have a glue gun and some extra time you can make your own cap to finish off this look!
