Agnieszka (agnieszka7) | 223 comments I have some cover questions:

Sweet Masterpiece (Samantha Sweet #1) by Connie Shelton Is it ice cream cup or a cupcake on cover?
Sweet Company (Crossroads at Bethany #1) by Kara Kinsley How do you call in English this kind of ice - ice cream as well? (I think I read somewhere there's a difference and wasn't sure if it would work for this challenge)
Brownies & Betrayal (Sweet Bites Mysteries, #1) by Heather Justesen this looks like brownie á la mode to me - would it work for this challenge?

a) looks like a cupcake
b) those look like fudgesicles or creamsicles. Since I designed the challenge -its a yes that you may use them! Nice find and creative!
c) yum, yum. It's still ice cream on top so yes it will work!
