Flour Shop’s rainbow explosion cakes have become an international sensation! And now, with The Power of Sprinkles, Flour Shop Founder Amirah Kassem reveals the secrets to making her magical cakes at home.
Amirah Kassem preaches the power of sprinkles in her wildly creative first book. A modern-day Willy Wonka, Kassem reminds readers that joy can be found in creating something delightful and delicious, that baking a cake for someone is the best thing in the world, and that, when it comes to cake decorating, any mistake can be covered in sprinkles (and everyone will love it anyway!).
The first in a delicious new middle-grade series by Flour Shop founder Amirah Kassem, authority on the sweeter side of life!
After receiving a magical cookbook and baking her special birthday cake, 10-year-old—wait, make that almost 11-year-old—Amirah is transported to the Magical Land of Birthdays, where she meets three of her birthday buddies from different corners of the world—kids who share her exact birthday and are also about to turn 11. In the Magical Land of Birthdays, a place filled with wonder and whimsy (and plenty of cake!), you can celebrate your birthday every moment of every day. As they explore the land, Amirah and her new friends learn about each other and the special bond they share, and discover exciting and wonderful birthday traditions from around the world.
With wheels to spin, flaps to open, and tabs to pull, this board book is perfect for little bakers!
In this interactive board book, create Flour Shop’s incredible rainbow explosion cake that, when cut, spills out a stream of sparkly sprinkles. Turn a wheel to mix the batter, lift a flap to open the oven, and pull a tab to frost the cake and then release the glittery contents!
It’s been almost six months since Amirah visited the Magical Land of Birthdays, which means it’s almost time for her half birthday! As that special day approaches, Amirah realizes something is not right in the birthday universe. Party invitations are going missing, people don’t feel like celebrating, and stores are sold out of birthday cake ingredients. When Amirah notices that the pages of The Power of Sprinkles are fading away before her eyes, she knows something is terribly wrong. That’s when she and her B-Buds, new and old, travel back to the Magical Land of Birthdays, where they discover that someone is determined to rid the world of birthday magic—by destroying the Magical Land of Birthdays! Can Amirah and her B-Buds restore the magic before it’s too late?
