Lemon Meringue is one of the original and earliest Strawberry Shortcake characters, and has been a major character in most generations since her debut. Lemon Meringue has always been a prim and proper fashionista, who gives the best advice on how to present yourself. Despite her name, however, Lemon is not really sour; in fact, she's a real sweetheart. She's current with all the latest trends, even having a salon in Berry Bitty City in the 2009 series, where she frequently does hair and manicures with those who visit her. Her unseen home in the 2003 series is also said to be a hair salon, though we never see it. She loves to spend time and chat with her berry gal pals, so when she can work on them she is at her happiest. In the 1980's series, she had a pet frog named Frappe. This pet was changed in the 2003 series to a skunk named Sourball. In the 2009 series, she has a puppy named Henna. She debuted with Raspberry and they are very close friends in all generations until G5. She is now an energetic, tomboyish mechanic and food truck worker, and business partner with Lime Chiffon.
