Mon Amie Amy Gift Shop, Ashburn VA 20147, Gifts for all occasions
A canelé already has a lot going for it — Jellycat's Amuseeable Carole Canelé gives the little French pastry a face, a pair of tiny arms, and a personality to match. This soft plush toy captures the iconic ridged, caramelized shape of a canelé with the kind of affectionate detail Jellycat is known for: a sculpted form, expressive features, and the wonderfully absurd premise that a custard pastry should also be a character you'd want to introduce to people.
It's designed for imaginative play, but Carole has an obvious second calling as a collectible — the kind of thing that ends up on a shelf, in a flat lay, or handed to a friend who once spent too long in a Bordeaux bakery. She fits naturally into the Amuseables line, which has made vegetables, croissants, and avocados equally endearing. Carole is just the newest member of that particular ensemble cast.
Care & Cleaning: To keep your Jellycat Amuseables Carole Canelé looking her best, surface washing is recommended. Use a damp cloth with a small amount of mild detergent to gently spot-clean the plush, then allow her to air dry away from direct heat or sunlight. Avoid submerging or machine washing, as this can affect the shape and texture of the soft plush material. A gentle brush can help restore the pile if it flattens with regular handling. Proper care keeps Carole Canelé soft, clean, and display-ready for the long haul — whether she lives on a toy shelf or a kitchen counter.
