I had the Strawberry Shortcake doll here! Her strawberry breath lasted friggin' FOREVER, I s*** you not. I had her for at least 15-20 years (at the end of which she still had her strawberry breath!) until my dog decided she would make a good chew toy... :(

lol, there was a plastic tube in their bellies that had a handful of scented cylinders inside. they were... well, the best description would be if someone soaked mini tampons in fragrance and plastic wrapped them, leaving either side open to release the scent.

That's the Strawberry Shortcake I remember, not the "modernized" one they have today!

That is awesome! I will definitely check that out. I have such an embarrassing crush on Julian... I think it's the perpetual rum and coke. :)

I hate the new Strawberry Shortcake, too. I tried watching an episode while babysitting and was too distracted by their swishy CG hair to pay attention to the actual cartoon. UGH.

maybe ...

You are so right! I am 32, and have had mine since I was around 5... Last time I squeezed her at my sister's house was 2 years ago, and her breath still had slight hint of strawberries...

Ah you're right, that smell DID last forever! It was crazy!

Those things kept the scent forever. My mother still has the little solid plastic figurines (not the dolls, the little two inch statuette style figures) from when I was little and they ALL still smell like they did when she bought them almost thirty years ago. Particularly the Sour Grapes figurine! It's kind of amazing!

I remember that exact smell. I was obsessed with Strawberry Shortcake, and I didn't have this doll but I had the one more like her cartoon self, and I believe she was scented.

I also got strawberry scented baby powder as a gift...which is an odd thing to give to a seven-year old, really. I don't remember wearing it much, which is better that covering myself in it.

I remember being disappointed that real strawberries didn't taste like that smell!
