Details
This was the second big British
building. It's picture on the brochure did not in the least bit resemble
the Kitchen that was actually sold, except
perhaps in shell, but the final product was far fromdisappointing. Kitted
out with all the things a Cookery Pony would
need it included pastry cutters, a rolling pin, cakes, an oven, cupboards,
a sink and sideboard, cups and a saucepan among other things. Like the
Schoolhouse it officially came with no pony, despite being pictured with
Cherry Sweet in it's second (more correct) advertisement.However, in some
shops it was issued with some of the Teeny Weeny ponies, and later on when
French packaged My Little Pony Kitchens were imported as end of line stock,
Baby NightCap and Baby Sleep
Tight of the American Slumber
Party Gift Set were put inside it in little plastic bags, similar to those
Mail Order ponies were sent in. (see scan below). This would suggest surplus
stock from America was dispatched in Great Britain, as similarly packaged
Pink Dreams (with wings) and Sleepy Head were also found. The Teeny Weeny
Ponies, on the other hand were put in whilst still on their
cards. The Cookery Ponies
were generally simple earth ponies, despite Sweet Delight being originally
pictured as a pegasus with gingerbread symbols . All were sold with combs
and aprons at the same time that the Kitchen was issued.
Baby Nightcap = Mint in the bag she was issued
in in Europe.
