Blossom Utonium, better known mononymously as just Blossom, is a child superhero and one of the three titular characters in the Powerpuff Girls animated franchise. Her voice was originated by Catherine Cavadini.

She is the leader of the Powerpuff Girls, which also includes her other fraternal triplet sisters, Bubbles and Buttercup. Together, they live with their father, Professor Utonium, in the city of Townsville, which they have become the official protectors of.

Utonium created the girls—albeit accidentally—while trying to create the perfect little girl with a mixture of "sugar, spice, and everything nice." He then accidentally added the extra ingredient of Chemical X, which created three little girls around the age of five-years old; complete with special powers such as being able to fly, super strength, and shooting lasers from their eyes.

Character description

Blossom is a young girl sporting a pink dress with a black-centered stripe, along with white stockings and black Mary Janes. She has long, fiery orange hair that goes down to her knees and a big red bow on top of her head. As shown in many episodes, she takes great pride in keeping her hair neat, often brushing and combing it.

In the original series, she is portrayed as a 5-year old girl who attends Pokey Oaks Kindergarten, whilst fighting crime alongside her sisters Bubbles and Buttercup.

They are backed by Mayor DeBlah, who they literally have in the palm of their hands, and who is as scatterbrained as his template.
