What will the Sugar Apple Fairy Tale anime be about?

For those who may be hearing about the series for the first time, Sugar Apple Fairy Tale is a fantasy light novel series.

According to the official website, the series takes place in a fantasy world where fairies are commonplace, and sugar confections are said to bring good luck. For those capable of making scared sugar convictions, there is a special title that can be bestowed upon them – Silver Sugar Master. When she was alive, Anne’s mother was one of these Silver Sugar Masters, and Anne is hoping to follow in her footsteps one day. In order to achieve this, Anne must have her skills recognized at the craftsman fair held by the royal capital once a year. To get there, she hires a warrior elf named Shalle as her escort, despite the tumultuous relations between their races. Despite their initial headbutting, Anne hopes that they can be friends and that maybe their races can begin to understand each other.

It definitely sounds like a unique take on the fantasy anime genre and one worth checking out!
