Opening Sentence of the Day: CakeSpy


It's true: stuffing cinnamon rolls with chocolate chip cookie dough really does make them more delicious.
-- Cakespy Presents Sweet Treats for a Sugar-Filled Life by Jessie Oleson. That gives you a good idea of Oleson's over-the-top take on desserts.

Oleson is the author of the irresistible CakeSpy blog and the book is chock full of recipes, photos, and Oleson's adorable illustrations.

This has major Christmas gift potential.


A Few More Pages hosts Book Beginnings every Friday.  The event is open for the entire week.

  1. Oh my, the combination of two delicious things into one... I'd be willing to give it a try anyway! It might be too sweet for me, but too hard to resist.

    Thanks for participating in Book Beginnings!
