I say Tart, you say Torte


Browsing through the toy section at Target today, I noticed the new updated Strawberry Shortcake dolls sitting on the shelf. There they all were, (with longer hair and hipper clothes mind you) Strawberry Shortcake, Lemon Meringue and Raspberry Tart. But wait, it seems they have changed my favorite childhood doll Raspberry Tart's name to Raspberry Torte. Hmmm. Do you think they thought "Tart" sounded a little "tarty" and decided to change the name? Surprising what with all the tarty Bratz dolls out there selling like mad. I guess they didn't want anyone to mix the two up huh?

Yeah...and do they have the Purple Pie Man? I would LOVE to see how they remade him.

I believe they changed her smell a bit too. She is now a "Flavor Swirl" of raspberry and kiwi. Interesting. I did NOT see the Purple Pie Man! I wonder if he is still around? Hmmmm.
