I liked that we got to enjoy all the people we've been on a previous journey with and met along the way. Being together yet having their own side experiences was a nice change to just one couple's story. I am voluntarily leaving a review.

Spankles

Welcome to Little Cakes. This is book 20 of the series and is a very tasty treat.
One of the things I always miss in a series like this is revisiting all the couples from previous books to see how they are doing and getting on in the world they have joined. Yes, they have cameos in later books, but that's to move the new couple forward.
The joy of this book is that we catch up with each of the previous couples on their own timeline. A little snippet into their new lives and friendships.
I love the introduction of bad cupcakes 🧁 and the littles reaction when they think about it is brilliant, exactly what I would expect.
Throw in a bit of intreaque, lots of hot bottoms, a few new skills, and a couple of new faces to give a well-rounded and fun tale that made me smile all the way through.
I highly recommend this book, series, and authors. You will not go wrong.
Enjoy.

"even cupcakes have bad days"

This was a totally different format from the rest of the series but done on purpose to let us revisit with all our friends from the series without getting overwhelmed.

Broken down into three parts and giving us three parties with a portion of our friends and a chapter from each Little's POV, what a fun way to reconnect with our favorites!

I did struggle to remember every character and every couple as it had been awhile since I read those earlier books so that was a bit of a personal bummer as I wished I could connect/remember everyone a bit clearer.

This was somewhat different read, three different stories about all the littles from past stories
Bad Cakes – Story 1
This has been a simply wonderful read and I can guarantee that like myself if you have had the pleasure pf reading the previous books in this series you will love reading the three separate stores that are based around the Littes and their Daddies we have come to know and love.
The first short story was something I think everyone can associate with as we have all had a terrible day at work and on this occasion, this had all started at Ellie’s cupcake shop when she had managed to cover herself in cake batter and then Riley had hurt herself by skidding on the batter and crashing hip first into one of the cakes prep tables, she had ended up being iced by her paramedic daddy.
As it happened it seemed that many of the other littles had also had bad days and had all decided to meet at Little cakes where the had all had far too many alcoholic chocolate drinks and fortunately as the next day was a day off had spent it recovering from their terrible hangovers and the punishments their Daddies had thought fitted the crime and the had all gone to Little Cakes to help clear up the mess they had left before going home drunk.
Bad Cakes – Story 2
This had been a really sweet and funny story as many of the Littles have just been so busy with the jobs they do or even in some cases the businesses they run and they had missed being together as a group and having fun and enjoying things that only littles can.
Rose wanted to have a Stuff-It party in the store after hours and had asked her daddy if he would be alright with this and also if he would help her to put together some party games and arrange for the store to be open in the mall after hours so that security did not call in and bother them all.
All of the littles and their Daddies had a wonderful time there had been a great selection of games and puzzles to do and the each of the littles had chosen a new friend each that they would build and clothe and love and their Daddies had recorded secret messages on the hearts that went into their little girls stuffie. It had been a simply wonderful evening and Rose knew that it would be something she would love to do again with her friends.
Bad Bakes – Story 3
Blaze is the club where most of the Littles and their Daddies meet and the club had decided that they needed to introduce more new forms of play to each of the couples and individuals so that they would learn all about things that might help them in the future from health care with their Daddies looking after them and carrying out the necessary tests if and when they were needed.
Then they had tried various different BDSM forms of play and this had varied from wax play to learning about floggers and spanking and how understanding your partners needs was vitally important. They had also experimented with Shabari which quite a few Littles and their Daddies or Mommies had found this to be extremely erotic and swore they were going to earn more about the many classes available at the club.
This was a wonderful read and I am sure you will enjoy reading about the characters we have read about in previous books and learn how their relationships are blossoming it was simply wonderful to read how they were all progressing.
I thoroughly enjoyed the book and look forward to reading any future publications; keep up all the wonderful writing.

A Definite Sweet Treat

"Bad Cupcakes," the latest installment in the Little Cakes series by Pepper North and Paige Michaels, is a sweet treat that’ll have you coming back for seconds—and maybe even thirds! The book is like a cupcake sampler, split into three sections, each featuring groups of Littles and Daddies from previous books. It’s a sugary mix of fun, chaos, and pure joy!

The group settings in this book are the frosting on the cake for me. When you get a bunch of Littles together, you know you're in for a delightful blend of sweetness and mischief. The title really nails it—because even when a cupcake (or life) gets a little messy, it’s still wonderfully sweet. This book embraces the idea that things don’t have to be perfect to be amazing, which is a message we can all appreciate.

From a wild night with some tipsy Littles to an adorable stuffies party, and even a new member orientation at the local dungeon, "Bad Cupcakes" is like a dessert buffet of fun scenes. The authors have whipped up something special here, showcasing authentic BDSM dynamics with just the right sprinkle of humor and heart. The couples are as adorable as ever, and I love revisiting them—it's like catching up with old friends over a sweet slice of cake.

What I adore most about this series is how these characters support each other. The friendships and bonds they share are as heartwarming as a fresh batch of cupcakes straight out of the oven. "Bad Cupcakes" reminds us that life, like a cupcake, doesn’t have to be perfect to be wonderfully sweet.

So, grab a cozy spot and dive into "Bad Cupcakes." It’s a sugary escape that’s sure to leave you smiling and maybe craving something sweet!

Not as good as prev books & rather disappointing

I was expecting more from this book so I was kinda disappointed . It’s mostly the littles getting punished instead catching up with each couples lives in part one. Part two involved most of the littles getting punished multiple times for the same offense thanks to the ‘game’ the daddies thought up. While those littles had more fun than those in part one, that unfair punishment ruined it for me. I really loved part three as that actually was all fun and games and included exploring new things and meeting a new couple. And the Bad Cupcake actually showed up finally.

One of the biggest issues I had was the use of punishment enema’s. I have a deep dislike of enema’s being used as a form of punishment as they are designed for a specific medical issue or to prepare for a surgical procedure. And like all types of treatments for medical conditions, involves a lot of negative side effects. Even water enema’s can be harmful by flushing out good bacteria from the stomach and intestines. I wish whichever author uses this as a punishment would do a more in-depth research and discuss it with multiple doctors before adding it as an acceptable punishment. I’ve had to use them for chronic constipation before but the severe cramping, bloating, dehydration, nausea, and occasional bout of vomiting after using them convinced me to switch to a stool softener or suppository as healthier options for constipation. Now, reading about an enema as a punishment makes me cringe. All I can think about is why put someone you love through that when they aren’t actually constipated or haven’t been prescribed to do so by a doctor.

I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving my review.

I absolutely loved reading this book I couldn't put the book down, the story was written well and well developed and the characters were sensational. I thoroughly enjoyed reminiscing of the previous characters from Blazes some of the Littles met at Ellie's Little Cakes and she would tell them about Blazes so the Littles all formed a fantastic friendship while the daddies would talk and drink together. Some of the Littles had birthday's coming up and would ask their Daddies if they can have a party and that started a new craze with the Littles. They set up their parties at their place of work or their daddies place of work, they would even try to get their daddies to just drop them off so they didn't have spoil sports but their daddies would make sure that the Littles would clean up the mess and not eat all the cupcakes that Ellie and Tarsan would make. We ended up meeting some new Littles and some Daddies, and really I cannot wait for the next saga coming up.

Unsure how to rate this book.

On the one hand, after nineteen books and so many characters, it got a little confusing (pun intended) even though I think not all the couples were in here. On the other hand, the two different parties were really cute, but they had one theme- they all ended with sore bottoms, and very sorry and very loved, little girls, and lots of cupcakes. It also left us wondering about a few things, including if there's going to be more books? Parts One and Two (the parties) were cute, but I don't understand Part Three and the whole D/s introduction? That to me is between the littles and their Daddies. If they wanted to experience anything more kinky privately, their Daddies should've and would've made it happen. I didn't like the whole "group sport" aspect of it. If anything I thought it made the girls more uncomfortable. Also we meet a new woman but we never find out if she's a little too? I do recommend this series but I'm still unsure how to rate this book. 3 or 4 stars?

This is Book 20 in The Little Cakes Series. It features all the past couples and 2 new friends.
It is in 3 parts. Each part a short story featuring several past couples.
The first part takes place at the Bakery when several of the Littles have a bad day and all come to the Bakery and indulge too much in a chocolate alcohol drink and have some flower fun. But the next day have to answer to their Daddies.
Part 2 takes place in the stuffy store Stuff-It after mall hours as Rose opens her stuffy store for a party with several of the Littles.
There is several games including a interesting game of Spin the bottle.
Part 3 takes place at Blaze and you get to visit with more couples and 2 new friends as we discover and have fun with different BDSM demonstrations around the club.

This was a great visit with all the past couples and was lots of fun as well to read.
Can't wait to see what is in store @ Little Cakes next!!

Bad Cupcakes is the last installment in Pepper North and Paige Michaels’ Little Cakes series. This installment differs from the others in that it provides readers with a glimpse into the lives of all of the other Lgs and DDs. The authors divided it into three parts. Part one focuses on the Lgs of Little Cakes. Part 2 focuses on the Lgs and DDs connected with Blaze. Part 3 focuses on the Lgs connected to Stuff-It. The authors use the Lgs’ antics to build suspense in this age-play romance.

Pepper North and Paige Michaels did it again with another adorable romantic age-play read. Their skill utilizing literary devices is outstanding. Their dialog, both conversational and internal monologues, are entertaining, as they reveal a concise picture of her characters’ identities. The characters are multi-dimensional. I liked the way they use the Littles mischievous actions to generate interest.

Part One
This was hilarious how they all got in trouble from having a bad day. They all learned their lesson by not
drinking anymore, because they were punished when they got home and the next day they all showed up to help clean up their mess.

Part Two
Each little got their spanking because they were drinking too much. They got to have a party at Stuff-It on the weekend. They each got a new stuffy and then had the greatest party ever even though when they played spin the bottle and got their bottoms spank they still had a great time and started planning the next party.

Part Three
This section is the six new littles and their daddy’s that have been to Blaze a few times. Blaze was having an orientation for the news members and they did not want to miss this. Their biggest surprise was at the end when they were heading out Ellie and all the others were there and she had cupcakes for each one in their favorite flavor.

Enjoy this wonderful book.

This is not what you think ... oh there are a lot of Littles and Daddies, but they are all the ones you've met in previous books. 3-in-1 short stories of different ways for the Littles and Daddies to interact. When the new cupcake was announced, you would think there would be a new couple attached, but boy I was wrong ... it just goes to show you that everyone has a bad day but doesn't mean they should be discarded. Also, you see that Daddies have a sense of humor when their Littles get together and mischief happens. And even though you think you know what a BDSM club offers, learning new things is always a good step in building your relationship further. You'll laugh, feel bad for the headaches and be intrigued about the new stuff ... there are a couple surprises, won't spoil that. Enjoy the read, Paige and Pepper did it again!

This book was just too much of a fun experience to ever put down! Regardless of things to be done, I had to keep reading from start to finish. Unlike all the other Cupcake books in the series, this story did not focus on one new couple’s DDlg romance but instead it featured 3 vignettes of Little’s get-togethers and the mayhem (and earned punishments) that ensued. Lots of laughs, a few tears, and a whole lot of erotic sexcapades. Virtually all the previous characters made at least a cameo appearance, and one new couple got introduced to the group. I hope they have their own book coming soon. Oh, and the titular cupcake does have an important role in the story. Just. So. Much. Fun. I loved it. 5 Stars

Got to love a bad cupcake!!!!

I loveeeee little cakes books I eagerly await each new book and read through all the previous books when the next book is about to be released. This is such a good little catch up on all the characters. So much fun!!! I only wish that there was a new story every month and that it there was a newsletter just for little cupcakes that we could all sign up to that on our birthdays we were sent a secret birthday story. It could be the same story but people only can get to read it on their birthdays. I can't decide on my favourite flavour of cupcake because they all sound so amazing and all the littles and their daddy's are such amazing couples.
Soooooooo soooooo good read enjoy and get hungry for another amazing cupcake. Cupcakes for all !!!!!!!

These are three short books within one longer one. There isn't one couple to focus on, but it features get-togethers of the Littles and some new friends. The first story is about the bad days that the Littles have. A delicious alcoholic beverage is brought, and the Littles drink way too much. The consequences are different for each, but they all come together to help Ellie clean her bakery for the next day. The second story is about the party the Littles have at Stuff-It. They have fun, but there is some creative discipline involved. The last story is set at the lifestyle club Blaze. The newest members are invited to attend a tour, orientation activities, and a party.

This was a great book, and I look forward to the series' next books.

I thoroughly enjoyed the story about all the Littles participating in activities that got them their spankings that they seem to enjoy, as well as their cupcakes that they love to eat. Each group of Littles enjoyed activities that gave them pleasure, but got them in trouble as well, and it all ended with them, enjoying a night at Blaze the local BDSM club, where the Daddies and Littles learned new things to make their lives more enjoyable and they met a new couple that we hope we will learn more about.

I was given an advanced copy of this book to read and I am reviewing with my honest and fair opinion.

I loved this catch-up with all the well done characters that I met during the series. It includes three separate novellas. The first is about all the littles working in the cake shop and the consequences of drinking too much alcohol. The middle one is a party in the stuffie shop and the shanagans playing games. And the last one is about the newest members of Blaze. This book is a lot longer than the other stories but still full of hot erotic sexy scenes and fun between fully committed couples. I received an advanced reader copy of this book and am leaving an honest review. This is an engrossing page-turner.

Everyone should be bad every once in a while, shouldn't they? Gather a group of Littles, and who knows what will happen? Enjoy the beloved characters of the Little Cakes series as they indulge in a much-needed break from following all the rules, and treat yourself to this sweet and naughty update on each couple's decadent journey to happily-ever-after.

This was a fun look at the littles and I loved their viewpoint on the treatment of bad cupcakes. Lots of naughiness and punishments in this sweet visit with the littles and their Daddies from the series. Easy to read, feel and understand. These were BDSM-like DDLG relationships with mature content.

Bad Cupcakes by Pepper North and Paige Michaels is the twentieth book in the Little Cakes series! I can't believe we've already had the opportunity to fall in love with so many endearing couples, and, getting to revisit them in three parts was such a fun journey!

From having a bad day and commiserating with friends, to having friends over and creating new memories and stuffies, to an exciting orientation day at Blaze, we're taken on a rollercoaster of sugar, laughs, friendship, and love!

This was a quick read, a fun read, and definitely left me with a hankering for a cupcake or three! I can't wait to see what story we get next in this world!

Always a delicious treat to be savoured.

I felt a sense of wonder at all the inventive punishments handed out to some very naughty Littles, having had way too good of a time after a bad day at work.

The second part of this book had me howling,
the shenanigans the girls get up to are epic, fortunately there are repercussions.

I absolutely loved the beginner tour of Blaze, I was able to easily imagine being there amongst some of my favourite Littles learning different aspects of the lifestyle.

All the Littles are having a bad day. Even worse, they are all getting in trouble as well. Each Daddy has his own type of punishment for their own Little. I do love reading about the group. I love each one and will miss them greatly since the series has come to an end. But I am sure well will get a “hello” from them later. And I do love how Ellie reacted about the Bad Cakes. It was so cute. Every bad cake deserves to be loved and enjoyed.

A great addition to the Little Cakes series, but if you are looking forward to a meet cute with a new couple, hold off. This one is actually 3 in 1 - 3 separate short stories involving different couples from earlier stories and concluding with a visit to Blaze. There is an introduction to a new couple, but whether it is a hint of the next book is unclear as they are an established couple. It was fun to catch up with all the couples previously introduced.

I received an ARC and freely offer this review.

This book was a different format from the others in the series. This story was broken down in three parts of different couples that you met throughout the series. The POV was of the Little’s telling their story with their Daddies. You got to see the club Blaze that the Little’s go to with their Daddies. You got to meet a new couple that was introduced at the end of the book. I want to see what the next book will be like. You saw the Little’s each have a bad day and the consequences of what happened afterwards. I am looking forward to the next book.

Oh my gosh! The issues that started this story had me ready to cry for Ellie and Riley. However, Megan turned that around and had me laughing at the end of chapter one. Oh, the poor (NOT!) littles the next day. The party at Stuff-It was so fun to read. I laughed a lot. The antics all the littles got into were a hoot. I enjoyed the meaning behind "Bad Cupcake." This was such a fun read. I liked how each of the three parts was a mini-story within the overall story, taking place in other locations. So cool. Enjoy the read!

I have loved this adorable series since Book 1, when we first meet Ellie, the owner of Little Cakes. Every book, and every couple, have found love and their favorite signature cupcakes throughout the course of the 20 book series ♥️ This book ends the cupcake empire Paige and Pepper have built together 😢 Despite the title Bad Cupcakes (which also means there are probably some misbehaving Littles mixed in 😂), this book ends on a high note. It catches up with all of the Littles and Daddies along the way……and maybe some new Little mischief 😉

This is such a sweet book! I loved catching up with all of the Little Cake couples. You could feel the love. Brats aren't my thing but there was just enough brattiness to earn a bit of punishment. As always with a Little Cakes book I was left feeling warm and hugged. Wonderful read. Definitely read the previous books in the series (no hardship believe me) so you know the couples. 5 stars and a happy sigh.

All the feels. We get three stories that show us a where are they now of all the cupcake ladies and their daddies. These were novellas, but oh so satisfying. I got a bit of a this is the end feel from the stories, until of course I read the last one and we get introduced to a new character. Nevertheless, each story was organically written and we got some great scenes with each of the couples. Great finale.

Heartwarming story

This book is a delight to read.
Enjoyed all the escapades the little got into and how each of them tried their hardest get out of the punishments.
Laughed out loud when they were reading the excerpts out of the "banned" books.
Seeing how each Daddy and little reacted at the newby introduction at Blaze just shows that each and every kink has it's own place.

This book was wonderful. I loved how Pepper and Paige broke it up into three parts so we could see all the previous Daddies and their girls. From flowers being bad when delivered, to cupcakes that got smooshed, I loved all the parts of this book. It brough them all together and gave us a glimpse of how their lives have changed over the length of the series! Wonderful!!!!!
