A cozy adventure book from Ian Thomas Healey, narrated by August Roy.

Chef Muffin is no adventurer, but she's going to have to figure out how to become one. She's got to prepare a fantastic dish for a royal wedding, using ingredients she's never heard of, that she'll have to travel the breadth of the world to find. If she fails, she loses her livelihood, but if she succeeds...like every true fantasy adventurer...fame and fortune await. And, if she's lucky, she might even find true love into the bargain. It's a recipe for fun.
