- Author Jan Sikes – “I love the stories Robbie and Michael create! This is a lovely story, but the fondant work is absolutely amazing! Thank you for sharing, Marsha!”
- Beetley Pete – “Great to see Robbie and Michael featured here. I have shared the post on Twitter.”
- Books and Such – “Love the story, Robbie and Michael. Have to say I’m partial to the Baked Alaska Dragon – he’s a handsome guy. Nice to see a pic of Michael also!”
- Carla Loves to Read – “Great post. I’ve enjoyed several of the Sir Chocolate books and read many to my grandchildren. The illustrations using the baking is such a great addition to the books.”
- Dawn Pisturino’s Blog – “Delightful story and illustrations!”
- Derrick J. Knight – “Another delightful production from the talented mother and son team”
- Elizabeth Gauffreau – “I LOVE all of the construction details!”
- Ephemeral Encounters – “What a wonderful story, so enjoyed reading, and the cakes too 🤗”
- Esther Chilton – “What an amazing story and Robbie’s creations accompany it perfectly. The baby cookie monster was delightful, with his snout: For this job his nose was perfect With its flat and saw-like edge And when he’d finished the walls He cut out each window ledge
- and I loved the children who lived with their mother in the boot. The rhyming works so well and each complements the other. A real treat.”
- Fenland Phil – “Not a sticky ending. You can’t beat lots of cake.”

- Just Olga – “It’s a marvellous story, and the artwork is perfect as well. Congratulations, Robbie and Michael!”

- Method Two Madness – “Delightful, as always. (K)”
- Myths of the Mirror – “A lovely story, Robbie and Michael. There’s nothing like a community project to bring people together. I liked the way that everyone pitched in, even the kids, the trolls, and a dragon. The images are bright and attractive too. A great story for kids. Thanks for hosting, Marsha.”
- No Facilities – “This is such a fun story. I love the large and varied ensemble cast that Robbie and Michael literally created to share this story. I enjoyed the plot, pace, and the evolution of the church was fun to watch.”
- Patty’s World – reblog
- Plain and Fancy – “It took 7-8 minutes to review all the lovely characters in your story. I couldn’t wait to see the gingerbread chapel. Thank you, Robbie and Michael!!”
- Raj – “Enjoyed the delighted story. Beautiful photos. Lovely work, both of you. ☺️.”

- Unique Times with Cindy – “A delightful story and fondant village. I’m eating my way through .. amazing! Robbie rocks, and Michael, too! Thanks, Marsha! 💕”
