Sometimes starting from scratch turns out to be the icing on the cupcake. It's Katie Brown's first day at her new school and she's already feeling miserable. Her best friend Callie has been invited to join the Popular Girls Club and Katie's been left out in the cold. Is their an Unpopular Girls Club she can join? The only thing that makes Katie feel better is the special cupcake her mum packed for her lunch, just biting into the sweet treat stops her feeling so sad. And even better, the delicious looking cupcake attracts three other girls who are also feeling a bit lost at the new school. And as the girls' friendship grows they decide to start their very own cupcake club - sharing and making their own special recipes!

When Mia asks the girls in the club to be junior bridesmaids in her mother's wedding, everyone is super-excited about the idea...especially when they find the perfect dress for the occasion! It's Emma's dream dress, except it's a little more than she expected. And with her mum now out of a job (she's been put on unpaid leave at the library) there's not a lot of room at the Taylor's house for extras. But not wanting to disappoint her friends, Emma decides to take on a few more jobs and chores around the house to help cover the cost. Between babysitting her bratty brother, a dog-walking business, flute practice, the Cupcake Club - and oh yeah, being a typical tween girl - Emma may have bitten off more than she can chew. Can she handle it all?

Book four of our fun and delicious tween series about friendship is told through the perspective of Alexis. Alexis Becker is by far the most prepared, very exact, and super organised Cupcake Club member. But there's more to Alexis than meets the eye - she has a crush, and it's on her friend Emma's older brother Matt! And with her sister's sweet sixteen party coming up, and both Matt AND the Cupcake Club attending, will she be able to stand the heat? Because there's no way to prepare for falling in love!
