Mix a little butter, some eggs, flour and a heaping helping of murder and what do you get? A yummy cozy mystery set in a cupcake bakery! Sounds like a recipe for fun to me!

Mel and Angie, the gals at Scottsdale's Fairy Tale Cupcakes bakery, are gearing up for what promises to be a stellar Valentine's Day. Mel's mom is even excited about the romantic holiday as she has the first date she's been on in decades coming up! Unfortunately, someone has murdered Baxter Malloy on their first date, putting a damper on any romantic notions!

Now Mom's a suspect, and Mel and Angie need to find out just what the con-man did to cause his untimely death and discover who served him his just desserts. The girls recruit their business partner Tate, and Angie's brother Joe to help them track down the clues before the killer decides to ice another victim.

Having thoroughly enjoyed Sprinkle with Murder, I was delighted to be able to read Jenn McKinlay's second book in her Cupcake Bakery Mystery series, BUTTERCREAM BUMP OFF. And once again, I found a charmingly entertaining story paired with a luscious assortment of cupcake recipes that, when combined, made for a deliciously thrilling mystery!
