Blurb: 
Retired schoolteacher Phyllis Newsom's scrumptious baked creations are known throughout Weatherford, Texas, for many things, but being healthy isn't one of them. So this year's contest should be quite a challenge, because even though the entries must be low-cal and low-fat, Phyllis will never, ever scrimp on taste....

You catch more flies with honey than with vinegar. Unfortunately, nobody ever told Shannon Dunston, despotic president of Oliver Loving Elementary's Parent-Teacher Organization. With Shannon at the helm of the upcoming fund-raising carnival, Phyllis Newsom and her friends agree that they wouldn't mind if she were to go to a much hotter place than Texas....

Even though the carnival fare is heart-healthy, Shannon won't get a chance to see the benefits after someone stabs her in the chest in a school hallway. Distraught, Phyllis learns she may have used the knife that killed Shannon--and that it left incriminating traces of frosting on the corpse. Now clearing her name will be no piece of applesauce-and-granola cake....
