Original Note:
There are no sources from the 19th Century naming these dolls 'frozen Charlotte', only penny dolls. There is no evidence they came in coffins (although doll sized coffins did exist in the 19th Century). Also, there is no evidence they were baked into cakes as a surprise. https://twitter.com/ULTweets/status/1601913356318920705?t=lEqW4yF1vCU3KhRO0wsryg&s=19 https://btaylorblake.com/2019/07/06/defrosting-frozen-charlotte-21st-century-misconceptions-about-a-19th-century-doll/
