Dulcie's Taste of Magic

In this Pixie Hollow adventure, a baking talent fairy, named Dulcie, must find the ingredients to Comfort Cake, an ancient recipe, in order to save her job in the kitchen.
It all starts out one day when Dulcie is late for work, and uses salt instead of flour in one of her specialties. Then, when Queen Clarion tells her that she's been working her butt off and needs a vacation, Dulcie feels like she's being replaced. Later, that afternoon, Dulcie goes to the library and finds herself in the cooking section. She finds a mysterious, ancient recipe, called Comfort Cake, and decides to make it. However, as Dulcie collects the ingredients, she sees fairies in all sorts of hard, strenuous work, and she can't help but appreciate them.
After Dulcie finds all the ingredients, she gets to work, sneaking in the kitchen at night, baking and baking and baking. But will the Comfort Cake turn out all right, or will it be failure and permanent replacement for Dulcie?

"This book was quite magical and interesting, but it did not have much action at all. I prefer books with more suspense and/ or action."
