Welcome to Amelia’s Writing Corner, where the magic of storytelling meets the joy of healthy eating! We’re excited to share a delightful update to three of our beloved children’s books – Silly Willy Apple Cake, Squishy Wishy Meatballs, and Snowflakes with Sugar. The recipes for these classic rhyming stories have undergone a tasty transformation, now featuring not just the original recipes but also scrumptious plant-based alternatives.
The Plant-Based Revolution
In a world that’s increasingly leaning towards plant-based living, we’ve decided to join the movement and make our stories more inclusive. The decision to include plant-based options in our children’s books comes with many benefits, both for young readers and the planet.
Benefits of Plant-Based Alternatives:
- Healthier Choices for Little Tummies: Plant-based diets have been linked to numerous health benefits. By introducing plant-based recipes, we’re offering a wholesome option for young readers, promoting balanced nutrition from an early age.
- Environmental Stewardship: Choosing plant-based ingredients is a small yet impactful step towards environmental sustainability. It’s a lesson in responsible living that goes hand-in-hand with the values we aim to instill in our young readers.
- Cultural Inclusivity: Embracing plant-based options allows us to celebrate diverse dietary choices. Whether due to cultural preferences, allergies, or personal choices, our books now cater to a wider range of readers.
Exploring the Updated Recipes:
Silly Willy Apple Cake:
Dive into the world of scrumptious apples, apple picking, color identification, and rhyming sounds, as Bella and Mia bake a delicious apple cake. Now, young chefs can choose between the classic recipe and a plant-based twist, making the baking experience even more delightful.
Squishy Wishy Meatballs:
Join the delightful characters in Squishy Wishy Meatballs as they cook up a delicious Italian meal. Our updated edition includes a plant-based meatball recipe that’s as flavorful and satisfying as the original.
Snowflakes with Sugar:

A Final Note
Our commitment to inclusivity goes beyond the pages of our books. We believe that every child should have the opportunity to enjoy the magic of cooking and savoring delicious treats, irrespective of their dietary choices.
