    "description": "<p>Chocolate ... the most irresistible temptation? The Gingerbread Cafe is all a buzz! This Easter, Lily and the rest of the town of Ashford, Connecticut are planning a truly decadent Chocolate Festival. Cooking up a storm, CeeCee and Lily are not just baking a batch of their sinfully delicious chocolate-dipped gingerbread men, but an excess of chocolate truffles, squidgy, cinnamony hot cross buns and melt in your mouth chocolate eggs. The Gingerbread Cafe staff have definitely enjoyed the tasting process! Add in Damon's cute-as-a-button seven year old daughter, Charlie, up for a visit and Lily's perfect Easter may just be around the corner. Until her ex-husband Joel turns up demanding twenty thousand dollars... Suddenly the future of the Gingerbread Cafe is not so clear...and Lily finds herself eating far more of The Gingerbread Cafe's treats than her skinny jeans allow... Can Lily concoct a brilliant plan to save her beloved cafe, convince Damon she has no feelings for Joel and still throw a Chocolate Festival the town will be talking about for years? There's only one way to find out... Welcome back to the warmth, cupcakes and hot chocolate of The Gingerbread Cafe &ndash; your home away from home</p>",
