Everything in her life is changing: school, parents, friends—she and her family even had to move into her grandmother's cramped apartment. On top of all that, Hayley has to figure out how to navigate the confusing world of boys, kisses, and crushes!
Luckily, she has a talent for baking and when life isn't so sweet, her cupcakes always are.

Confession: Hayley's world is far from perfect…
Her parents have divorced, her mom lost her job, and Hayley and her little sister, Chloe, are stuck sharing a
bedroom in their grandmother's apartment. Things only get worse when Hayley and her best friend, Artie, start
disagreeing about everything. Even though her cupcakes are flying off the shelves, Hayley realizes that it's
going to take more than sugar and spice to make things in her life nice again.
Confession: Hayley's life has turned completely upside down…
Hayley finally has her crush's attention! Or rather, her cake pops do. The only problem is that it looks
like his new girlfriend is Hayley's ex-BFF, Artie, and her new friend, Meghan, isn't doing much to make
Hayley's life easier. All Hayley really wants is for her year (and her icing) to stop glopping.
Confession: Hayley's new world just won't mix right…
Things at home are settling down and Hayley's former best friend, Artie, is back in the picture, but it's
not the happy reunion Hayley's been hoping for. Hayley's ex-BFF and new BFF, Meghan, are like oil and
water – they just don't mix! This looks like another recipe for disaster!
Confession: Hayley has bitten off more than she can chew…
Just as things are getting back to normal, life throws something new into Hayley's mix – well, several
new things. Now she has to worry about baking a wedding cake, training a new puppy, and maybe changing schools!
To make matters worse, her family and friends are pulling her every which way in the process. It's clear
things won't be a cakewalk anytime soon.
