Read A-likes: Cake Pops: Tips, Tricks, and Recipes for More than 40 Irresistible Mini Treats; and Sticky, Chewy, Messy, Gooey: Desserts for the Serious Sweet Tooth.

Personal Thoughts: This book is a take-off of the author’s book for adults.  Such an amazingly fun book to use with kids of all ages!  Some of the recipes are what I would consider “pretty” food, and somewhat beyond most kids abilities unless being helped by an adult that knows how to bake, but overall I would definitely use this book with not only my own kids but to teach kids about how much fun cooking can be.
