Whimsical and delicious! This is a wonderfully photographed instruction book on creating fun, unusual and memorable treats using the basic recipe for Rice Crispy Treats. I imagine that it would be great fun to do this with children, or even a group of children for a special treat. There are some great ideas for shaping the treats, and often candy is used to visually enhance the end result.

Not crazy about the recipe calling for artificial food coloring and mini marshmallows instead of marshmallow 'fluff.'

This is a clear and lively recipe book with a chatty and friendly introduction. There are lots of photographs and the information is clear and easy to read. Such a creative and exciting book! Cannot wait to try out some of these recipes.

Treat Yourself! by Jessica Siskin is an adorable book of design options using Rice Krispie treats. Some are easy, and some are very elaborate and impressive. Each recipe and design idea includes color pictures of each step of the process. Very easy to follow instructions. This book would be really cute for the crafty parent looking to impress their kids class!

One vegan treat I've wanted to make for a while are vegan rocky road bars, as vegan marshmallows and chocolate are easy to find so they should be easy to make. The cover drew me in; it's a fantastic book with so many creative ideas of what to make with crispy rice - so many of which I never even thought of! I love the idea of making a newspaper, pizza and book out of puffed rice, chocolate, icing and marshmallows! I will definitely be making some of these, they'd be a great birthday treat idea to make instead of cake! My only negative about the book is that at least half of the photographs are quite boring and they could be really creative, eye catching and fun but they aren't sadly which I think is a big letdown for a food focused book.
