Grandma Rosiepuff is a deceased character from Trolls; her name is never said in the movie, instead coming from supporting media and The Art of DreamWorks Trolls. She is the grandmother of John Dory, Spruce, Clay, Floyd and Branch.
Despite her apparent death, Branch mentions her in the Trolls: The Beat Goes On! episode "Fluffleberry Quest", and later in the Trolls: TrollsTopia episode "Cakes on a Train". She appears in "The Search for Piece" in a flashback of Branch's and in Trolls Band Together.

Personality[]
Despite her limited appearances, Grandma Rosiepuff is depicted as a kindhearted and loving grandmother who loves her family. She is also a selfless individual, who would sacrifice her life for grandchildren, most prominently Branch.
Her personality was expanded on in later media, with her bio stating she is an expert in caretaking, and the threequel revealing she was not only the sole caretaker of Branch and his brothers, but was also a poker player who “play(ed) for the money.”
Relationships[]
BroZone[]
Grandma Rosiepuff is Branch's grandmother. She loved her grandson as evidenced when she saved him from Chef at the cost of her own life, which unfortunately caused Branch great trauma and left him without a guardian to look after him, resulting in him becoming a loner from Troll society. It is evident Branch loved her in turn, as he still thinks of her fondly despite not mentioning her that often.
However, it is unknown how her relationship was with the rest of her grandsons as interactions with her and them are limited. She also seemed to be oblivious to their tensions and eventual fallout.
Skills & Abilities[]
She had most normal Troll abilities.
Due to her aging body, she had physical restrictions.
In the Trolls era, she was listed as a Rainbow Troll. Her "True Colors" are unknown.
Child-minding[]
She was described in media as being good with children and the ideal grandmother.
Baking[]
In "Fluffleberry Quest", it's mentioned by Branch that she made Fluffleberry cake, calling it the "best dessert ever". It later turns out that only Branch likes the cake, tasting foul to his friends.
There was an animatic of a cut scene in "Branchception", which shows that originally one of the temptations the Dream versions of The Snack Pack would have used to keep Branch in the dream was that he could eat her cake all day.
Games[]
She used to play puzzles with Branch according to "The Search for Piece" as she believed that the great thing about puzzles was all the pieces fit together. She realized this is not the case, however, and for one puzzle she threw one piece away, leaving Branch a note to look to others to fill that piece.
As revealed during the beginning of Trolls Band Together, Grandma Rosiepuff was engrossed in playing with betting games. Though she claimed she was unbeatable, Floyd's suggestion that Branch should "let her win occasionally" suggested she wasn't as good of a player as she perceived herself to be and that her grandsons were throwing games on purpose.

Trivia[]
