The first thing that drew me to this cookbook was the bright and colorful cover. Then I read in the description something about a "Sprinklegate" and I just had to know more. So thankfully I was given the chance to preview this book by NetGalley and the publisher White Lion Publishing and I will be forever grateful.

He was using the US sprinkles instead of the UK ones because he felt they were superior. He made several snarky posts about it on Facebook and thus Sprinklegate was born.

He added he will not use any other sprinkles on his baked goods: “Unfortunately, I am only prepared to use them and no others. If I can’t use them, I won’t use any. I will be on a sprinkle strike and won’t budge for no man. Rich told MyLondon: "When we first started, my dad had just passed away.
