Oh this Silly Symphony is just precious, it's a confectionery Cinderella story that could be the most visually appealing and adorable one of them all! As a Silly Symphony I think The Cookie Carnival has something of an advantage because most people love cute old-fashioned cartoons, and everyone loves candy! The only other thing that I've ever seen quite like it is the Simpsons episode where Homer daydreams about the Land of Chocolate. Why does candy always look so good in cartoons? I don't know what it is, I love watching things that have that particular effect on the viewer, that make you hungry while you're watching them. My favourite edible feature was the sweet roll red carpet. Its just maybe a little too sickly-sweet for some and some of the singing was on the shrill side, but I just mainly love it for the impressive visual candyland appeal. Everything except for the quick naughty joke with the éclair.. All of the characters in the Cookie Carnival are, well, cookies. And after undergoing a cakeover, one of them goes from being all flat with corners in her limbs to human-looking in one sugah powdered second, which at the time was apparently considered Disney's first fully feminine character, with the artist later going on to animate Snow White, and you can see faint similarities between the two. I love how the passion of the two lucky cookies melts the lollipop they hide behind to steal a kiss at the end, it's surely the Sweetest love story ever! This cartoon is probably not to everyone's tastes, but for me the novel hook and sheer eye catching cuteness make it very memorable and endearing indeed. A sweet sweet super lovely little animated gem of the series - Bon appetite! 🍪 💖
