Reviews

"Fairy Food invited me to step into a forest realm where a magical banquet awaited, and I never looked back! Between the pages I found recipes for some of the fairies' favorite foods, including rainbow tea bread, rose petal cupcakes, French toast flowers, and so much more. A feast for the eyes as well as the stomach, Fairy Food charmed me and promises to do the same for all who have the good fortune to behold it--human and fae alike!" --Alison Walsh, author of A Literary Tea Party
