Battered To Death (Daphne Martin Cake Mysteries) - Plot & Excerpts
She nodded. Kimmie Compton introduced Alex and said he would be demonstrating a simple design that kids would find fun and impressive. Alex looked at Leslie, and she wiped her palms down the sides of her jeans and said, “Hi, I’m Leslie Armstrong. My brother, Lucas, and I are helping Alex today. Alex doesn’t like to talk very much while he works, so I’ll be explaining what he’s doing and that kind of stuff. Thanks.” Alex removed a teddy-bear-shaped cake from the cake box. “As you can see,” Leslie said, “Alex is making a teddy bear cake.” “Yeah,” said Lucas, pointing toward the back left side of the ballroom. “Those people over there donated the pan. Whoever was supposed to do this demonstration before Alex took over made the cake, but Alex knows what he’s doing. He’ll do a bang-up job on the decorating.” “Earlier today, Alex colored his icing,” said Leslie. “He’s got light brown, dark brown, white, red, and black. He also has a variety of cake decorating tips.”
