Sunshine Cinnamon was a small, slender, freckly earth pony who grew up in a small town not that far from Ponyville. Her cutie mark was a snickerdoodle bar.

Sunny may as well have been born with her cutie mark; for as long as she could remember, she had been obsessed with making tasty treats, and had a knack for it at an early age.

Sunny loved her family very much, but she was eager to leave the one-horse town she grew up in and travel Equestria. When she finally came of age, Sunny bought a small food cart with her savings and began her long journey. She travelled far across the land, visiting many new places, making many new friends, and discovering many new recipes for treats and new ingredients to experiment with.

Everypony she met would agree that Sunny was one of most cheerful and peppy ponies in the land. Everypony loved her treats as well, and Sunny was always happy to give samples to the young fillies and colts she met on her journey.

Sunny had been far from home for a long time and often felt homesick, but she knew she'd return home someday soon, her family waiting to greet her with open hooves.
