She's often a girl with a sharp tongue and a lack of tact. From 2003 to 2018, her name was changed to '''Raspberry Torte''', until "Berry in the Big City" changed it back to Tart.

−
'''Raspberry Torte''' is one of the main characters in the Strawberry Shortcake series. She was lessened in importance in the 2003 series but returned again in 2009 as one of the main characters.
  
  +
=== [[1980s series|'''1980s''']] ===
  +
Raspberry Tart debuted in the very first Strawberry Shortcake special, [[The World of Strawberry Shortcake]]. 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']].
  +
  +
=== [[2003 Series|'''2003''']] ===
  +
Raspberry first appeared in the episodes of [[Berry Blossom Festival]] from Season 3 alongside her best friend [[Lemon Meringue]]. Her name was changed to "Raspberry Torte", and her character was given a drastic overhaul. Raspberry was now a tomboyish athlete who lived over in Raspberry Meadows. Her house was partially a gym, though it was only seen once. Like her previous incarnation, Raspberry Torte had a bit of a mean streak, but would grow nicer as the series progressed.
  +
  +
=== [[Strawberry Shortcake's Berry Bitty Adventures|'''Berry Bitty Adventures''']] ===
  +
Raspberry returned for [[Strawberry Shortcake's Berry Bitty Adventures]] as a part of the main cast. Raspberry Torte, undergoing yet another drastic character overhaul, was now much more feminine compared to her prior tomboy characterization in the 2003 series. Raspberry was a talented fashion designer who owned and operated the Fresh Fashions boutique in Berry Bitty City. Unlike her previous incarnations, this Raspberry was much nicer. She was still portrayed as being fairly close friends with Lemon Meringue, due to both of them having a love of fashion and creativity.
  +
  +
=== '''[[Strawberry Shortcake: Berry in the Big City|Berry in the Big City]]''' ===
  +
Raspberry's name was reverted back to "Raspberry Tart", and shs is once again a main cast member. Raspberry made her first appearance in [[Mean Berries]] in Season One. Unlike her previous incarnations, this Raspberry was an antagonist. She's a rich girl who runs the Raspberry Supreme bakery truck in the Berryworks of Big Apple City. She used to get lots of customers at her food truck until [[Strawberry Shortcake]] brought along her country-girl charm (and equally endearing country food), which snatched her customers away very quickly and caused the two bakers to form a mutual rivalry. Throughout Season One, Raspberry would try to sabotage Strawberry or drive her out of the Berryworks, alongside her friends Bread Pudding and Sour Grapes. However, several episodes would also be dedicated to showing a softer side to Raspberry, as she and Strawberry grew to know each other better and realize their common interests. Her parents are the world famous bakers Raspberry Ambrosia and Mulberry Tart, though their busy careers leaves them little time to spend with Raspberry.
  +
  +
In the season finale, [[Bake Off]], Raspberry and Strawberry competed in their favorite cooking competition show, ''Bite of the City'', where they settled their rivalry once and for all. Neither won, as Strawberry accidentally crushed Raspberry's entry, and it devolved into a (friendly) food fight between each other. The two bakers realized that it was silly for them to fight, when they had so much in common, and ended their animosity with one another.
  +
  +
From Season 2 onwards, Raspberry would be one of Strawberry's friends and a regular part of the main cast, with several episodes showing her joining the other Berry Besties in their day-to-day hijinks. The Peculiar Purple Pieman took her place as the new antagonist in Season 2. She and Strawberry are also established to now work together to support each others baking businesses.
  +
  +
In Season 3, Raspberry and Strawberry's friendship would be tested with the introduction of [[Crabapple Jam]], who would occasionally try to drive a wedge between the two, though their friendship would continue to persist despite her attempts. Raspberry used her experience as a former mean berry to befriend the bullies Cheese Strudel and Cherry Streusel, who worked for Crabapple Jam as her assistants.

{{Quote|Raspberry Torte is way into sport—this girl’s got game in any sport you can name! Her home is a gym in Raspberry Meadows where the other girls often visit to hang out and get in shape! She’s a go-getter and a great coach with a lot of confidence and team spirit. Raspberry Torte knows you can only be your best when you really put your mind to it!|From the 2003 website}}
−
**She changed from a sporty girl into a fashionista and become a bit of a ditz. 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 favourite food is bigfoot ice ceam, spaghetti or in a sandwich.
  
  +
Torte is much more outspoken, and gone is her quiet tone, though still retains the sharp opinions of her predecessor. She can sometimes be sarcastic and is easily annoyed. 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. In "[[Mind Your Manners]]", she was shown to hate manners, though would grow to appreciate them by the end of the episode.

{{Quote|Super stylish Raspberry Torte loves giving fashion advice to all the girls in Berry Bitty City. Raspberry's friends know they can always count on her for the berry latest styles--and true friendship, too!|Official Hub profile}}
  +
Torte is now much more girlier, and shows no signs of being a tomboy. Her quiet tone returns, and she's now characterized as being much nicer.
  +
  +
Raspberry is sweet and passive, she strongly dislikes arguments or having disagreements with the others, and she can be sensitive. She's easily flustered and somewhat reserved, often worried that the others might think of her ideas as being silly or not worth trying, but with some encouragement she can be given the push she needs to try. She is artistic and creative, and frequently receives requests from others to design something for them or an event of some kind.
  +
  +
She is a bit of a perfectionist and may overwork herself if given a window of opportunity that needs her full attention. While she is aware her decisions may worry others, she is determined to get the work done and make sure it's good. But she also cares about the others, and she'll do her best to help them out or encourage them as they do her.
  +
  +
=== '''[[Strawberry Shortcake: Berry in the Big City|2021]]''' ===
  +
As the main antagonist of Season 1 along with [[Bread Pudding]] and [[Sour Grapes (Young Girl)|Sour Grapes]], she constantly schemed to get Strawberry Shortcake to leave the Berryworks. She hated Strawberry due to her becoming incredibly successful in the Berryworks and drawing away all of Raspberry's customers. She was shown to be mean and ruthless, though as the season progressed a softer side of her would be shown.
  +
  +
It is implied Raspberry craved attention and strives to become a world-famous celebrity baker because her parents are rarely present in her life, too busy to even make a phone call on her birthday. It's also implied her parents rarely being around was what made Raspberry a mean berry in the first place. In [[Strawberry Shortcake’s Perfect Holiday]], it is revealed Raspberry hated Winterswirl and resented the holiday because her parents were never around to celebrate it with her, and it isn't until [[Cinnamon Swirl]] herself shows up that she learns to appreciate the holiday as a time to spend with her best friends.
  +
  +
In [[Bake Off]], after she and Strawberry realize that they both have so much in common, and should be friends, the mean side of her fades away. From Season 2 onwards, she's portrayed as being much nicer than before, though still has a bit of blunt honesty and a lack of tact. Raspberry becomes kind to Strawberry in a tough-love sort of way and is protective of her because she sees Strawberry as very naive, and the two are shown as being more friendly rivals than competitors, often collaborating on baking projects together.
  +
  +
Raspberry has a tendency to be overdramatic, and a bit of a competitive streak.
  +

  +
Raspberry initially didn't have a pet in Berry Bitty Adventures until Season 3, in the episode "A Boy and his Dogs". She initially adopted a Parson Russell Terrier named Pitterpatch, but the two were incompatible as he hated dress-up and felt uncomfortable wearing the clothes Raspberry made for him due to his thick fur. Raspberry decided to give Pitterpatch to [[Plum Puddin'|Plum Pudding]], while she got Chiffon the chihuahua from Orange Blossom. Raspberry and Chiffon got along much better, as Raspberry was able to make fashionable clothes for Chiffon that kept her warm and comfortable. Chiffon would remain Raspberry's pet dog for the rest of the series.

  +

  +
* In the special "[[Strawberry Shortcake’s Perfect Holiday]]", it is revealed that her mom is a CEO of an Orchard 500 company and her dad is a world-famous gourmet chef.
  +
** Orchard 500 is a pun on "Fortune 500", a list of the top 500 companies in the world according to Fortune magazine.
  +
* She is the only member of the main cast to not have a pet or a family member with a pet.

  +
** Similarities:
  +
*** Her and Strawberry's designs reflect each other. Both wear dresses/skirts with a jacket and long leggings/socks. Both have pinkish colored hair. Both have some sort of face spot (freckles for Strawberry, a mole for Raspberry).
  +
*** They both run bakery trucks with a similar base design.
  +
*** Both are bakers hoping to become famous and successful.
  +
*** Both are fans of Kiki KeyLime, and take all of her advice to heart.
  +
*** Both had a grandma who would regularly impart advice to them, including the same exact thoughts about shooting stars.
  +
** Differences:
  +
*** Their designs reflect their backgrounds. Strawberry's is more rustic and homely, reflecting her country bumpkin origins. Raspberry is more urban and modern, reflecting her upbringing in Big Apple City.
  +
*** Their trucks likewise reflect this. Strawberry's truck has several "country" elements, such as the garden roof, awning decorations, and being a hand-me-down from a family member. Raspberry's truck is very sleek, with sharper edges and prominent signs featuring a raspberry on the roof and the right side of the truck, compared to the Extraordinary Berry's subtler strawberry theming.
  +
*** Raspberry grew up in a rich, upper-class lifestyle in the city, while Strawberry grew up in the small humble town of Berryville located in the countryside.
  +
*** Strawberry's parents and Aunt are very prominent in her life, while Raspberry grew up rarely spending time with her parents.
  +
*** Strawberry is much more outgoing and is always ready to make new friends, while Raspberry prefers to stick with the friends she already has (Bread, Sour, eventually the other Berry Besties).

Latest revision as of 19:36, 12 April 2024

Raspberry Tart made her debut in the 1980s series, and is a major recurring character in the Strawberry Shortcake franchise. She's often a girl with a sharp tongue and a lack of tact. From 2003 to 2018, her name was changed to Raspberry Torte, until "Berry in the Big City" changed it back to Tart.

General Information

1980s

Raspberry Tart debuted in the very first Strawberry Shortcake special, The World of Strawberry Shortcake. 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'.

2003

Raspberry first appeared in the episodes of Berry Blossom Festival from Season 3 alongside her best friend Lemon Meringue. Her name was changed to "Raspberry Torte", and her character was given a drastic overhaul. Raspberry was now a tomboyish athlete who lived over in Raspberry Meadows. Her house was partially a gym, though it was only seen once. Like her previous incarnation, Raspberry Torte had a bit of a mean streak, but would grow nicer as the series progressed.

Berry Bitty Adventures

Raspberry returned for Strawberry Shortcake's Berry Bitty Adventures as a part of the main cast. Raspberry Torte, undergoing yet another drastic character overhaul, was now much more feminine compared to her prior tomboy characterization in the 2003 series. Raspberry was a talented fashion designer who owned and operated the Fresh Fashions boutique in Berry Bitty City. Unlike her previous incarnations, this Raspberry was much nicer. She was still portrayed as being fairly close friends with Lemon Meringue, due to both of them having a love of fashion and creativity.

Berry in the Big City

Raspberry's name was reverted back to "Raspberry Tart", and shs is once again a main cast member. Raspberry made her first appearance in Mean Berries in Season One. Unlike her previous incarnations, this Raspberry was an antagonist. She's a rich girl who runs the Raspberry Supreme bakery truck in the Berryworks of Big Apple City. She used to get lots of customers at her food truck until Strawberry Shortcake brought along her country-girl charm (and equally endearing country food), which snatched her customers away very quickly and caused the two bakers to form a mutual rivalry. Throughout Season One, Raspberry would try to sabotage Strawberry or drive her out of the Berryworks, alongside her friends Bread Pudding and Sour Grapes. However, several episodes would also be dedicated to showing a softer side to Raspberry, as she and Strawberry grew to know each other better and realize their common interests. Her parents are the world famous bakers Raspberry Ambrosia and Mulberry Tart, though their busy careers leaves them little time to spend with Raspberry.

In the season finale, Bake Off, Raspberry and Strawberry competed in their favorite cooking competition show, Bite of the City, where they settled their rivalry once and for all. Neither won, as Strawberry accidentally crushed Raspberry's entry, and it devolved into a (friendly) food fight between each other. The two bakers realized that it was silly for them to fight, when they had so much in common, and ended their animosity with one another.

From Season 2 onwards, Raspberry would be one of Strawberry's friends and a regular part of the main cast, with several episodes showing her joining the other Berry Besties in their day-to-day hijinks. The Peculiar Purple Pieman took her place as the new antagonist in Season 2. She and Strawberry are also established to now work together to support each others baking businesses.

In Season 3, Raspberry and Strawberry's friendship would be tested with the introduction of Crabapple Jam, who would occasionally try to drive a wedge between the two, though their friendship would continue to persist despite her attempts. Raspberry used her experience as a former mean berry to befriend the bullies Cheese Strudel and Cherry Streusel, who worked for Crabapple Jam as her assistants.

Personality

1980s

Raspberry was mean at first, often making snarky or rude remarks, but learned to become nicer to others in the end. She spoke with a quiet tone.

2003

“ Raspberry Torte is way into sport—this girl’s got game in any sport you can name! Her home is a gym in Raspberry Meadows where the other girls often visit to hang out and get in shape! She’s a go-getter and a great coach with a lot of confidence and team spirit. Raspberry Torte knows you can only be your best when you really put your mind to it! „
~ From the 2003 website

Torte is much more outspoken, and gone is her quiet tone, though still retains the sharp opinions of her predecessor. She can sometimes be sarcastic and is easily annoyed. 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. In "Mind Your Manners", she was shown to hate manners, though would grow to appreciate them by the end of the episode.

2009

“ Super stylish Raspberry Torte loves giving fashion advice to all the girls in Berry Bitty City. Raspberry's friends know they can always count on her for the berry latest styles--and true friendship, too! „
~ Official Hub profile

Torte is now much more girlier, and shows no signs of being a tomboy. Her quiet tone returns, and she's now characterized as being much nicer.

Raspberry is sweet and passive, she strongly dislikes arguments or having disagreements with the others, and she can be sensitive. She's easily flustered and somewhat reserved, often worried that the others might think of her ideas as being silly or not worth trying, but with some encouragement she can be given the push she needs to try. She is artistic and creative, and frequently receives requests from others to design something for them or an event of some kind.

She is a bit of a perfectionist and may overwork herself if given a window of opportunity that needs her full attention. While she is aware her decisions may worry others, she is determined to get the work done and make sure it's good. But she also cares about the others, and she'll do her best to help them out or encourage them as they do her.

2021

As the main antagonist of Season 1 along with Bread Pudding and Sour Grapes, she constantly schemed to get Strawberry Shortcake to leave the Berryworks. She hated Strawberry due to her becoming incredibly successful in the Berryworks and drawing away all of Raspberry's customers. She was shown to be mean and ruthless, though as the season progressed a softer side of her would be shown.

It is implied Raspberry craved attention and strives to become a world-famous celebrity baker because her parents are rarely present in her life, too busy to even make a phone call on her birthday. It's also implied her parents rarely being around was what made Raspberry a mean berry in the first place. In Strawberry Shortcake’s Perfect Holiday, it is revealed Raspberry hated Winterswirl and resented the holiday because her parents were never around to celebrate it with her, and it isn't until Cinnamon Swirl herself shows up that she learns to appreciate the holiday as a time to spend with her best friends.

In Bake Off, after she and Strawberry realize that they both have so much in common, and should be friends, the mean side of her fades away. From Season 2 onwards, she's portrayed as being much nicer than before, though still has a bit of blunt honesty and a lack of tact. Raspberry becomes kind to Strawberry in a tough-love sort of way and is protective of her because she sees Strawberry as very naive, and the two are shown as being more friendly rivals than competitors, often collaborating on baking projects together.

Raspberry has a tendency to be overdramatic, and a bit of a competitive streak.

Chiffon dog

Chiffon

Raspberry initially didn't have a pet in Berry Bitty Adventures until Season 3, in the episode "A Boy and his Dogs". She initially adopted a Parson Russell Terrier named Pitterpatch, but the two were incompatible as he hated dress-up and felt uncomfortable wearing the clothes Raspberry made for him due to his thick fur. Raspberry decided to give Pitterpatch to Plum Pudding, while she got Chiffon the chihuahua from Orange Blossom. Raspberry and Chiffon got along much better, as Raspberry was able to make fashionable clothes for Chiffon that kept her warm and comfortable. Chiffon would remain Raspberry's pet dog for the rest of the series.
