This item was part of a 2016 release that included Maryellen's Christmas Party Outfit, Party Punch Set, and other items. It retired in 2019.
In this festive set, Maryellen can practice her baking skills and share fun treats with her family and friends! It includes: A set of cookie cutters that fit into a special box A set of pretend decorated cookies A pretend glass of milk A merry apron to keep her dress clean. A bright holiday-themed tray for serving the cookies
This set was a must-have for me. I think the metal serving tray is wonderful. I was a little surprised the box that holds the cookie cutters is cardboard. I hope it holds up to play. The cookie cutters themselves are amazing, and can actually be used. (I forgot to take a pic of them.) And of course, the apron with little deers, is absolutely adorable! I was a bit disappointed the bottom is off white- not bright white.
My only complaint about this set, is that the scale of the cookies and cutters is just too large IMO- the cookie is larger than Maryellen's dinner plate- that is a VERY BIG cookie!!!!
Overall I would give this set a "B"

I love the new painted pail design, but I too was shocked and disappointed by how heavy it is! I did not care for the new foods either, they are larger, and IMO, much "faker" looking than the PC version. I would rate the new set a solid "B"

Just wanted to add that Penny's "bridle" (or sad excuse for a bridle as it may be) is held on by a metal bar that actually goes right through her nose. If you attempt to remove it, you need to be very careful or you can end up removing her nose instead!

I just purchased Mini Caroline and I am so disappointed. The ruffle at her neckline is really out of scale and the dress fit is just OK. My biggest complaint is her hair- the full size Caroline has all one length hair, curled in ringlets. Mini Caroline's hair is only wavy and worst of all IT'S LAYERED. So it cannot even be fixed it by re-setting it. Grade: C
