Blog Tour – Chocolate Fudge saves the Sugar Dog by Robbie and Michael Cheadle
My friends, I’m very excited to host the Chocolate Fudge saves the Sugar Dog Book Tour for Robbie and Michael Cheadle. Please join me to welcome them and let them share this wonderful news with you!
Hi Robbie and Michael, please tell us about your latest book.
Thank you, Miriam, and friends.

Imagine, living in a world…
… made of a giant gobstopper.
A world…
… where you can eat everything.
The trees, the houses, the flowers, and even the beehives.
The river is condensed milk, and the pond is cream soda.
Welcome to Chocolate Land!
Meet Sir Chocolate and Lady Sweet…
.
Sir Chocolate is round and fat,
He wears a waistcoat and brown top hat.
Lady Sweet wears a stripy skirt and top,
She looks just like a lollipop.
.
From Book 1: Sir Chocolate and the Strawberry Cream Berries Story and Cookbook
Sir Chocolate and Lady Sweet run a shop where they sell their delicious homemade chocolates and soda pop. When they are not busy developing yummy chocolate recipes, they go about Chocolate land putting wrong things right.
Sir Chocolate and Lady Sweet have a son, Chocolate Fudge, the star of Chocolate Fudge Saves the Sugar Dog.
.
Sir Chocolate and Lady Sweet,
Have a son, Chocolate Fudge,
A mild-mannered and kindly lad,
He’d never bear a grudge.
.
From Book 8: Chocolate Fudge Saves the Sugar Dog
Blurb:
Sir Chocolate and Lady Sweet’s son, Chocolate Fudge, sees one of Lord Humbug’s dogs struggling to stay afloat in the hot chocolate pond.
Can Chocolate Fudge save the sugar dog from drowning?
Includes lovely new recipes.
That’s wonderful information, Robbie and Michael.
My Review
I’ve read many Sir Chocolate books by Robbie and Michael Cheadle. Chocolate Fudge Saves the Sugar Dog is another darling addition to the series. The story is told as limericks. Limericks are cute and fun to read. The characters and the scenes are Robbie’s fondant art. I must say that I’m very fond of this fondant art because each character has a unique personality. They’re expressive and lovable.
In this story, Sir Chocolate and Lady Sweet have a son, Chocolate Fudge. He has a smile for everyone. The teachers love to have him in their classes. Fudge enjoys taking his dog to walk around the chocolate ponds every day.
One day, when Lord Humbug is out walking, his three dogs jump into the pond to chase the ducks. They scared the ducks, and the ducks flap their wings to escape. Two of the dogs are strong and good swimmers. The third little dog seems in trouble and on the verge of sinking. Chocolate Fudge must decide what to do to save the little dog.
There are delicious recipes throughout the book. This is a delightful book for children. They love to read the limericks and do the cooking with the adults.

Hi Miriam – I haven’t read any of Robbie and Michael’s Sir Chcolate books, but I’ve gotten to know their characters through Robbie’s fondant art. I agree, each fondant character has his/her own distinct personality – Robbie does a great job showing that!

Miriam, how lovely that you will have a chance to try out some of these recipes with your granddaughter – precious fun! I’ve just written a guest post about baking with my grandmother – wonderful times!
Aww .. thank you for checking my blog. I haven’t been on holiday just very busy on a new project which I wanted to give my undivided attention in February. However, just today booked tickets to Sweden for Spring and I can’t wait – feels unreal that we will be travelling again after nearly three years. Sending love and hugs to you, my dear friend. xx ❤️🦋

Oh wow, Annika. I’m so happy to hear you baked with your grandmother. What a memorable moment. I’ll check out your post today. I’m glad you had a rewarding holiday and gave undivided attention to your project.
I know the feeling of traveling again. We only did domestic travel a few times. I cancelled the February trip to visit my granddaughters but we’re going the last week of March to my younger grandfather’s birthday.
We’re planning a family trip to the Melbourne, Tasmania, and New Zealand with my husband’s siblings. Hopefully we can go in 2023.
When are you going to Sweden? I can feel your excitement!! 🌈💖
