Infos

High above the mundane world, a kingdom spun from sugar and dreams hangs suspended in the Ever-Sweet Skies.  Calaviere, a realm of candied clouds and chocolate rivers, is a confectioner's paradise, where magic is woven into every swirl of frosting and flick of a whisk.  But this delicate paradise is threatened.
Elara Thistlewick, a young patissier with a gift for conjuring magic from sugar, inherits her estranged father's recipe book - a tome brimming with forgotten lore and the secret to creating 'Sugarbound Soldiers,' enchanted desserts with the power to save or shatter their fragile world.  A subtle bitterness has begun to taint the air, a harbinger of the encroaching Ashplain alchemists and their corrosive culinary magic.  Led by the formidable Marduk Ironwood, they seek to transform Calaviere's whimsical sweetness into a reflection of their own desolate realm.
Driven by a premonition of disaster, Elara must decipher her father's legacy and master the Sugarbound Soldiers.  Her journey leads her to Zara Nightshade, a stoic meringue master bound by tradition, and the enigmatic Bastien Blackwood, a flamboyant chocolatier whose decadent creations mask dangerous ambitions.  Torn between their conflicting philosophies and a burgeoning romance with the captivating Bastien, Elara must navigate the treacherous political currents of the Confectioner's Guild while a creeping famine starves the cloud kingdom.
As the Ashplains corrupt Calaviere's magic, turning spun-sugar clouds into bitter smog and crystal streams into blackened rivers, Elara realizes this is more than a territorial dispute; it's a battle for the very essence of magic. To save her home, she must embrace her father's unorthodox methods, even if it means challenging the Guild and risking the wrath of those she respects.  But can she trust Bastien, whose charm she struggles to reconcile with his shadowy secrets?  And will her Sugarbound Soldiers, gingerbread golems, marshmallow clouds, and marzipan dragons, be enough to combat the encroaching darkness and preserve the sweetness of Calaviere?
