Fairytale Baking

Despite the enticing cover and promising subject matter, this did not hit the spot. Yes, there are fairytales (4 of them, and refreshingly not all common ones), and yes there are recipes, but that's about it.
There was no narrative - story or otherwise - connecting the fairytales to the recipes. The author is kind enough to include both metric and US measurements, but flips back and forth within each recipe which comes first. That's less an actual problem and more a peeve while trying to bake.
All in all, not the best literary inspired cookbook I've come across.
