5/10
Mainly For Little Girls
18 July 2007
This is pure fantasy and mostly a little girl's animated short.

Little Audrey's listening to a cooking show ("The Friendly Chef") on the radio and the man is explaining how to make gingerbread cake. Little Audrey ready, and follows his direction. At a feverish pace, she puts all the ingredients in and the mixture in the oven.

The fantasy comes in when the oven signals the 30 minutes is up and out pops a talking gingerbread man! He's off to Cakeland, he says, so Audrey follows him out the window and into the clouds. As I said, this is pure fantasy.

During that time, Audrey is introduced to "Miss Angel Cake," who is going to marry the Gingerbread Man. There ceremony is interrupted by The Devil's Food Cake. At that point, the cartoon changes from a 3-year-old girls' story to a decent adult one with puns, good action and interesting sights.

The cartoon is fairly primitive looking. It isn't the best artwork or color, but not the worst, either. The last two minutes saved this from being a total waste of time, but it's still not recommended for adults. Little Audrey, from what I can gather, is really for small kids.
