Raspberry Tart made her debut in the 1980's series, and is a major recurring character in the Strawberry Shortcake franchise. She has appeared in every series so far.

General Information[]

Raspberry's an outspoken little girl with a quick mind and a quicker mouth, whose words often get her into trouble. She means well and is usually quite sweet, but somewhat lacking in the tact department. Often around Lemon Meringue. She was lessened in importance in the 2003 series, renamed to Raspberry Torte, but returned in 2009 as one of the main characters. She would become the main antagonist in the 2021 show Berry In The Big City, being renamed back to Raspberry Tart. In the aforementioned show, she runs a food truck next door to Strawberry Shortcake's, which allows her to consistently cause trouble. After Season One, she became a close friend of Strawberry's because they realized their many common interests, leaving The Peculiar Purple Pieman to become the new antagonist.

Personality[]

1980s[]

Raspberry was one of several characters introduced in the first special. She was mean at first but learned to become nicer to others in the end. She spoke with a quiet tone and lived with Apple Dumplin'. She also had a monkey named Rhubarb.

2002-2008[]

Her name was changed to Raspberry Torte and she became an athlete with a sharp opinion and a little outspoken. She can sometimes be sarcastic and is easily annoyed. Her quiet tone was gone and her monkey was changed into a raccoon with the same name. She is often rude and cocky to most of the girls, and very stubborn. But she always has a soft spot for Lemon, her best friend and Strawberry eventually got through to Raspberry and taught her how it paid off to be nicer. She loves to be active and hates sitting still, or often sits in chairs weirdly as She loves games and competition. She'll often use her rough and tough demeanor to stand up for what is right.

2009[]

She changed from a sporty girl into a fashionista. Her quiet tone was heard at times and she had a dog named Chiffon. She owns a fashion boutique called Fresh Fashions where she sells clothes she designed and made. Her favorite food is bigfoot ice cream, spaghetti, or a sandwich. She is very creative and artistic with her designs. She often teams up with Lemon since hair and fashion go hand in hand in big projects or makeovers.

2021[]

In this series, her name is reverted back to Raspberry Tart. She was the main antagonist of Season 1 along with Bread Pudding and Sour Grapes, as she constantly schemes to get Strawberry Shortcake to leave the Berryworks. She hates Strawberry due to the latter doing better than the former in the Berryworks, and she is jealous of how kind Strawberry's friends are to her. Sour Grapes and sometimes Bread Pudding would help Raspberry as she exercises her plans. Her new personality seems to combine aspects from her 2003 incarnation (rather aggressive) and her 2009 incarnation (being quiet fashionable). She is slightly in vain. she dreams of being famous and on television. She craves attention because her parents are never present in her life and ignore her, which is probably why she wants to be a celebrity baker so that she is loved by many. She seems to be rich and fashionable. But above all, she loves baking, it is her true passion. When she and Strawberry are in a bake-off together, she realizes that they both have so much in common, and should be friends. She becomes kind to Strawberry in a tough-love sort of way and is protective of her because she sees Strawberry as very naive.
