It's a cooking-related supplement. It includes cooking-related "sub-subclasses" that can be tacked onto any class, as well as more conventional subclasses. And new dessert familiars that can be summoned by the Baker sub-subclass. And two cooking competition adventures. This is all right up my group's alley. The only thing I wish it had is a set of guidelines for writing your own cooking competitions.

D&D only eh?

The author is working on a 2nd edition, but no word on when it actually comes out.
