Description
Wonka meets The Great British Bake-Off with lashings of secrets and sabotage and illustrations on every page in this irresistible new detective series from award-winning Harry Woodgate.
Meet Cinnamon Crumb. In the town of Marzipan, home to bakers of near-magical talent, Cinnamon burns toast. She's no baker - but she is about to become a baking detective.
Because all is not sweet between Marzipan's two rival superstar bakers, Victoria Sponge and Madeleine Macaron. They will stop at nothing to win the coveted Twelve Tier Crown at the Great Cake Carnival - even sabotage. So when Victoria sets Cinnamon a mission to spy on Maddie, Cinnamon reluctantly agrees. But when Maddie asks Cinnamon to spy on Victoria too...well, Cinnamon is in a situation stickier than sticky toffee pudding.
