Strawberry Shortcake started her now long standing career as an idea for a Hallmark card, well several Hallmark cards. And when this character's cutesy image became so popular cards were made of her friends, Apple Dumpling, Blueberry Pie, Lemon Chiffon and lots of other bakery themed characters. From there Strawberry Shortcake got her own line of merchandise and by the mid-80s little girls everywhere started clamoring after Strawberry Shortcake and friends dolls.

She even got her own television show, which was so popular again, that Strawberry shortcake movies were made. The original Strawberry Shortcake cartoon series has long since ended, but it's been hard to keep this young character down and a few years ago a new Strawberry Shortcake series has been started up again. The modern strawberry shortcake may be a far cry from her dressed all in pink 80s look with a spunky hat and cool jeans but she's still a rave with her youngest fans.

This makes Strawberry Shortcake a great theme for your little one's next birthday party. Not only will you have plenty of options and ideas for the dessert menu, but you'll find that it's very easy to decorate. Strawberry Shortcake's favorite color is pink! All you really need to do is cover the party area in fabulous shades of this color. Look for pink streamers, balloons, and dangles to hang from the ceilings. Plus there is a lot of Strawberry Shortcake and friend's themed items to decorate your party with, look for paper plates, napkins, and cups in this theme. Don't forget the tablecloths in pink of course!

Keep the girls entertained with a garden party in the Strawberry Shortcake theme. You can turn it into something of a tea party as well with all the dessert items you are bound to have at the event. Coloring books and crayons make a great quiet activity for the guests to get into when you get tired from running around. Last but not least, pop in a Strawberry Shortcake movie for everyone to watch.
