Twinkle, Twinkle, Deadly Sprinkles is the second book in the Ivy Creek Cozy Mystery series by Ruth Baker. If you loved the first book in this series, be sure to move on and try the second and see what you think about it.

When the main character Lucy is invited to come and serve her pastries at a charity gala, it seems like a great opportunity to her. She has the chance to rub shoulders with all of the movers and shakers that exist in the town.

Things that are happening end up turning out better than could have been expected when she gets approached by a wealthy couple who want nothing more than for her to be the caterer for a huge event going on in their lives.

It seems like everything should be going fine. However, Lucy’s life is suddenly turned upside down when she hears that this couple, who seemed so nice, have been discovered dead.

Things get even worse from there. The rumor mill in Ivy Creek starts going into overdrive with hints that Lucy’s pastries might have been the thing that ultimately killed the couple. It isn’t true, of course, but it’s a small area where everyone knows everyone and people are of course going to gossip.

The insinuations that are being made are that Lucy’s pastries are the thing that killed the couple and no one else. But that can’t be true. Aside from Lucy knowing that there was nothing wrong with her pastries, there is also the fact that there were many people who ate the pastries but did not get sick or die like the couple.

There is no reason that people should think that the pastries killed the couple, but rumors swirl anyway. It gets to the point where Lucy realizes that she is going to have to get out there and do the work to clear her name because no one else is going to. She can’t afford to have all of this bad press on her name out there or people gossiping about her, that is for sure.

There is also a new mystery that emerges out of this situation: if the pastries weren’t the thing that killed the couple, then what did? Or who? Lucy has her work cut out for her this time. She must set aside all of her frustrated feelings and her fears and discover a killer who is more than happy to let Lucy go down for a crime that is completely heinous.

This is the second book in the Ivy Creek Cozy Mystery series, and it’s a good one. Whether you’re in the mood for a read that is light and fun, love a good female protagonist, or just want to read about culinary desserts that are guaranteed to make your mouth water, check this book out!
