Zunächst sind ihre Klassenkameradinnen Miranda, Lin und Tamtam alles andere als begeistert von dieser Idee. Sie haben eigentlich besseres zu tun als Lulu beim Backen zu helfen!

Und die zuckerbäcker-beste-Freundinnen Lulu, Miranda, Lin und Tamtam müssen auch gleich ihren ersten spannenden Fall lösen … Miranda möchte eigentlich gar kein Ballett tanzen, aber ihre Mutter steckt sie trotzdem in die Ballettschule, denn das sei so „gut für die Haltung“. Dort ist auch die neidische Ines, die alles daran setzt, den Muffin-Club zu entzweien und dafür sorgt, dass die Freundschaft der viel Muffin-Mädchen auf eine harte Probe gestellt wird … Der Sammelband enthält die Bände „Der Muffin-Club (1). Die süßeste Bande der Welt“ und „Der Muffin-Club (2). Vier Freundinnen wirbeln los!“.
