This seemed like a no-brainer to me...
Death by Chocolate is hosting today's guest post, which I lovingly call:
Why Fairy Tales Need More Chocolate
Most of us grew up with fairy tales, but there’s something
missing from most of them. Chocolate.
Of course, if you’re reading this then you probably already
know that chocolate makes everything better. If Cinderella had made her
stepsisters a chocolate cake every now and then, maybe they would have been
nicer to her. If Beauty had asked her father to bring back a piece of chocolate
(instead of a rose), he could have easily just plucked a bonbon from the
platter of food and avoided the whole death threat thing. And maybe if the evil
queen had used poisoned chocolate instead of a poisoned apple, they could have
avoided that long scene where the queen tries to convince Snow White to take a
bite, because who’s going to say no to free chocolate?

Back
in Time by Stacey Wallace Benefiel
Nothing
in Aurelia Lemon's life is turning out how she'd planned. She's unemployed,
unattached, and her family bakery is on the verge of closing. To make matters
worse, the guy she dumped in high school is doing well and getting rich off of
one of her departed mother's recipes. It would take a miracle to right
everything she's done wrong. Or maybe just a phone call and the chance to go
Back in Time.
Sweet
Witchery by Cheryl J. Carvajal
Catalena
is only one of many dreamers in a small medieval town in Romania. When the witch
Ramnusia opens her chocolate shoppe, suddenly dreams turn into reality. The
chocolates are divine, but their power is greater than their sweetness. Miracles
abound, dreams come true, and Ramnusia's magic confections become the talk of
the town. But if these chocolates can make dreams come true, will they win for
Catalena the deepest dream of her heart?

year old Claudia Bernstein is obsessed with two things: chocolate and Dante

Wildenbert isn't helping her get anywhere with her dream
guy.
Everything changes over Christmas break when Dante

The
Girl with Three Heads by Suz Korb
Kate
wakes up on the morning of the Death by Chocolate fundraiser event to discover
she has two extra heads resting upon each of her shoulders. She is not pleased
about this. She's even more displeased when she discovers the head on her right
shoulder (which looks like Santa Claus, complete with fluffy white beard) is
actually Zeus, lord of lightning, or something like that. The head on her left
shoulder? Yeah, it's the head of Hera;
goddess-of-looking-like-a-blonde-bombshell and getting on Kate's nerves by
shouting in her ear all the time.
Will Kate ever rid herself of these two
extra heads? Will she ever get to experience an actual kiss from a boy without
extra-head-situation interruptions? Join Kate as she struggles to survive being
flung into the Underworld, as well as eventually landing upon Mount
Olympus.
Just because she's got two extra craniums doesn't mean either
head is an extra set of useful brains.
