He's the lowliest baked good in all the land. But he vows to protect his delectable beloved... even if it means his gruesome demise.
Jerome the blueberry muffin has never felt so helpless. After hearing his confection crush is being held hostage by a devil's-food captor, the nervous pastry grabs his toothpick sword and his trusty gummy-bear steed to prepare for a risky rescue operation. And determined to save his precious Princess Kupcake, he puts his fear aside to storm the castle of black licorice.
Stumbling into a perilous pudding swamp and its congealed salad monster, Jerome finds a new ally in the foul-mouthed and murderous marshmallow peep who pulls him out of danger. But even with the help of his candy comrade and a wild wedding cookie, the steadfast gallant fears his mission will reduce him to a pathetic pile of crumbs.
Will his love prove strong enough to triumph over dark and deadly delights?
