Strawberry Shortcake: Berry Blossom Festival is a 2007 American animated compilation film. It was released on May 1, 2007 by 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment, although it was given an early release by Kidtoon Films on March 13 in select cinemas. Every copy of the DVD comes with a Berry Blossom Festival Crown, as seen in the film.[2]

## Synopsis

[edit]

Like with the other DVDs of Strawberry Shortcake, Berry Blossom Festival uses a "Compilation" format where Strawberry recalls the featured episodes in her "Remembering Book". The episodes featured on this DVD are "Mind Your Manners" and "Queen For a Day".

### Mind Your Manners

[edit]

In the episode, Strawberry Shortcake's friend, Raspberry Torte, shows that she doesn't care about manners at all, so her friends decide to teach her a lesson by inviting her to two parties; one of which the guests treat each other kindly, and the other where they don't display any manners at all. This shows Raspberry that manners really are important after all.

### Queen for a Day

[edit]

Through trickery and cheating, the Purple Pieman snatches the Berry Blossom crown from Strawberry.

## Release

[edit]

Berry Blossom Festival was released as part of Kidtoon Films' monthly program, during weekend matinees in select venues. The feature was only shown digitally, and not printed on traditional 35mm stock; had no major press reviews during its stay in theaters; and was designated as a direct-to-DVD feature in the first place. Hence, as with all of Kidtoon's past movies, it is not considered a legitimate theatrical release, according to animation expert Jerry Beck on his Cartoon Research site.[3]
