Strawberry Shortcake is a masked celebrity contestant on the twelfth US season of The Masked Singer.
Appearance[]
Strawberry Shortcake is dressed up like a pastry chef. She wears a white uniform, a red bow, a leafy collar, gloves, striped pants, and high heels. A giant shortcake accommodates as her dress, while many strawberries are scattered throughout the costume.
The mask itself is a giant strawberry with large purple eyes and a tiny smile, with the calyx for her hair and two additional strawberries growing out.

| 7 | Hayley Orrantia: "What's up, everyone? It's Hayley Orrantia, season 7's Ringmaster, and I'm so stoked to introduce my friend, and it's perfect she's making her debut tonight, because she's truly a festival favorite." Strawberry Shortcake: "Well, yeah, now I am! When I was young, I dreamed of going to a music festival, but one with me in the lineup. But even though I believed I was headline material, I sat on the sidelines watching everyone else have all the fun - for years! Like, how many posts can even exist? Until, one day, I got the call to - duh-duh-duh - open one of the most iconic ones. It was the sweetest day ever, a slow burn, but the best things in life are worth the wait." Hayley Orrantia: "Well, you've been by my side for some of my biggest milestones, and now, I'm so happy to be here for you. I truly believe you can take the cake - shortcake." |
| 8 | "Miley Night hits close to home for me, as close to Hannah Montana as one could get. Literally. That is because Miley and I both had the same dreams cooking, and apparently, the same recipe for success. We both grew up in front of the world, we lived the sweet life, and at one point, shared a stage. We even hobnobbed with the same famous brothers, and leaned on each other when we ended up breaking their hearts. Let's not sugarcoat it. Which is why it's fitting that tonight, I'm singing one of her most iconic breakup songs. The girl gets it, and I'm thrilled to pay tribute to the cream of the crop: Miley." |
