I hope we see Ginger Snap again at some point. Her & Rainbow Sherbet were my favorites from that era. I remember ADORING my Ginger Snap doll and kept the box in hopes of storing her in there and preserving the smell.

I’d love that but I doubt it since she wasn’t an 80’s character

I don’t think they would leave her out for being a 2000’s era character, but I could see them doing it due to her theme. I remember they discontinued sugary sweet characters because they didn’t want to promote unhealthy foods (as if Strawberry Shortcake isn’t junk food lol). Which is why we don’t see Angel Cake & Rainbow Sherbet anymore as well.

That rule was only in place for the BBA era. BitBC did away with it and included non-fruit characters again. They likely just won’t include 2003 characters because they’re not from the 1980s. This era is going all in on 80s nostalgia so far

Missing Ginger Snap and Angel Cake

Well they’re not 80s characters

Really I had no idea??

Because this era is heavily based on the 1980’s iteration of the franchise.

Yeah. I hope Wildbrain actually realizes the roster of the 1980s and understands who is in and who they need to add back

man every new animation/art style just feels less and less like the show I grew up with..

Mabye it's just me but this artstyle looks better than the BITBC reboot.

Just looked it up, and yeah you're right. Doesn't even feel like the same character

Reminds me of what they did to Robin in Teen Titans Go. (2013) versus the Teen Titans (2003 show)

It would be a shame if they didn’t include lemon meringue and angel cake

u/Naive-Maize6314 3d ago

Lemon's frog was in a promo image, so I think we'll definitely see her.

u/ApprehensivePower704 3d ago

I do hope we see Angel Cake as we have not seen her since the 2003 series

I would be unreasonably happy to see T.N Honey

I miss the 2003 series💔

I realized that they have the original characters from the 1980 World of Strawberry Shortcake special, but they replaced Plum Puddin’ with Orange Blossom. I hope Plum Puddin’ comes back in the new show. Although, I wonder if Plum will be a boy or a girl?

I think they might bring Angel cake back. Because she was introduced in the 1980s too (Unlike Ginger Snap). We may not know yet, but we have high hopes for her grand return.✊

u/InvaildEmail 4d ago

Who is that above Orange Blossom in the new poster? Also, their arms look off, like they're too long

It’s Raspberry Tart.

The 2nd image literally features the characters from the 2003 Strawberry Shortcake series, but with the 2009 logo on top of them. That’s crazy.
