Mini Milkshake
The worlds most adorable ball of cuteness was waiting in an all goods store in the town of Carei in Romania to be picked up by a child that would be her best friend who she could play with and entertain which was her biggest dream in life. Unfortunately nobody bought her and she sat on the shelf for years until she ended up in the bottom of box and the store put on a closing down sale.
On the last day before the store closed, Dr Bubble discovered her among buried away and forgotten and gave her to Milkshake who gave her a rainbow makeover and patchwork jumpsuit and the new and improved Mini Milkshake was born. Little could she have ever imagined in her wildest dreams that she would be the best friend of tens of thousands of children and entertain them around the world as she does, as one of the stars of Bubble Laboratory.
