Strawberry Shortcake Bakers: Sweet Treats

In honor of Strawberry Shortcake's 45th anniversary, the berry besties of baking will share baking, decorating and recipe ideas throughout the year.

Forty-five berry besties will be receiving this special cookie decorating kit from Amirah, which will be used to create confections that will be shared across their social channels. Fans everywhere are invited to join in on the baking!
  • Strawberry Shortcake will also be taking over Flour Shop's NYC flagship store February 14–27 with a "World of Strawberry Shortcake" theme. To make this partnership even sweeter, a free special Strawberry Shortcake sweet treat will be gifted to the first 50 people who visit the Flour Shop's location at 177 Lafayette St, New York, each day of the two-week takeover.
  • Additionally, as part of Strawberry Shortcake's celebration of female entrepreneurs and bakers, Toronto-based baker Namaya Navaratnarajah, founder of CakesByNams, designed a berry special selection of Strawberry Shortcake-themed cakes, including an extra-special burn cake that was set ablaze earlier this month to debut the Strawberry Shortcake 45th anniversary logo across all of Strawberry Shortcake's social channels.
