A human, a dwarf and an elf walk into a bake-off…

In the heart of Adenashire, where elfish enchantments and dwarven delights rule, Arleta Starstone, a human confectionist works twice as hard perfecting her unique blend of baking and apothecary herbs.

So when an orc neighbor secretly enters her creations into the prestigious Elven Baking Battle, Arleta faces a dilemma.

Being magicless, her participation in the competition could draw more scowls than smiles. And if Arleta wants to prove her talent and establish her culinary reputation, this human will need more than just her pastry craft to sweeten the odds.

While competing, she'll set off on a journey of mouthwatering pastries, self-discovery, heartwarming friendships and romance, while questioning whether winning the Baking Battle is the true prize.

Escape to for a delightful cozy fantasy where every twist is a treat and every turn a step closer to home.

One of the best books I’ve read in years

A new convert to cozy fantasy, this is exactly the vibe I need in life. Please write more of these, world. Loved this book and can’t wait to read book two.

It's sweet but....

The MC, isn't unlikeable but the fact she fights everything and everyone due to anxiety and is a stereo type. For a feel good book it's kinda frustrating

the friendships and growth

disliked: how long it took Arletta to embrace the idea of her and Theo. liked: It took me a few chapters to understand the names and "world" but then fell right into it !

A cute comfort listen

This book is well written, but obviously very short, don’t go in expecting too much intrigue or drama. It’s just not that kind of story. What is it then? A story about a talented young woman learning to be confident in herself and discovering that she may in fact deserve more than she’d let herself believe. It’s something great to put on while cleaning for a day or relaxing with a project. The narrator is amazing, but there were one or two moments where I distinctly heard a dip in recording quality. They were brief and she was awesome, so I’m not knocking off performance. Also the food descriptions are mouthwatering, my only regret with getting the audible version is not having the recipes at the back of the book.

Family friendly fun that was perfect for a mindless work commute

My main complaint is the main character's self-deprecations. It's over the top and doesn't really play a part in the character's development, but rather just creates problems so the storyline can develop... which is a choice.
The resolve is, while predictable, lighthearted and happy. This is a sweet story and is perfect for a commute or something to listen to for the whole family.
