We are passionate supporters of Australian-made products. When you are choosing a card, we encourage you to turn it over and see where it’s made.

A card that gives back. Choosing an Australian-made card can also support a cause close to the hearts of many families.

The Squishmallows story begins back in 2017, when the first squad of just eight lovable characters was launched. Inspired by the irresistibly cute and soft plush toys of Japan, the goal was to create a unique, marshmallow-like toy that was comforting to hug. Their popularity soared to a global phenomenon, largely thanks to social media platforms like TikTok, where fans and collectors began sharing their squads and hunting adventures. With unique names and personalities for every character, the desire to collect them all began!
