One of the Fairies I decided to create for 2008 is the Cookbook Fairy. When I lost my mother in 1989, my sister–in-law Sherry went through all of our mother’s recipes to share with my father, brothers and sister. As my mother was an avid cook and nurturing mom, she kept detailed notes of which dishes were favorites of her 6 kids and husband. I still get to enjoy some of these recipes today, but not to the degree I used to…they still taste wonderful, but lack the magic of mom’s cooking and the enjoyment of her conversation and laughter.
The Fourth of July cake was nearly always my birthday cake, as both my dad’s and my birthdays fall within that great week. It not only looks great, but it tastes delicious! I’ve got my Cookbook Fairy in my kitchen at home. Now I can really cook!

Mark,
I was wondering if you could make fairies for Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force, and Army. I am in the Navy and think it would be very awesome if you could do one. Thank you very much

I was just introduced to your beautiful talent. Please put me on your mailing list and let me know of any future events. I’m going to make some of your mom’s recipes at the Grand Canyon this Christmas season. Thanks for sharing her with us.

I just purchased the Father Christmas Fairy, Med. #68. I am hooked. He is beautiful. Do you have a Mrs. Santa Fairy?
July 27th, 2010 at 3:01 pm
I would love a Red Hat Fairy dressed in purple. I belong to a Red Hat Group and it would be fun to put her on display when we get together.

I only have 2 of your fairies, but enjoy getting them out at Xmas time. Just wondering if the “Support the Troops Fairy” is available yet. Thanks for all the neat character.

Dear Mark, I have your Large Peppermint Truffel Fairy, I do a cookie exchange every single year for all my lady friends, this year we added a communion, and this fairy as dough guardian. I also had a friend send me cocktail napkins which rang in the occasion with “Dashing through the dough” printed on them, but the darling of the evening was #607 of 2,000 Peppermint Truffel Fairy Thank you for your constant sense of all things family, heritage, tradiotion and eleqant entries to our holidays. Love to you.
December 16th, 2009 at 7:29 am
I love all of Mark’s fairies and at present, own at least 40 of them ;o ) I am not a democrat or a republican and thought it would be fun to have an “Independent” Fairy for all of us Independents! I hope Mark will consider designing one! Thanks for all his support to so many wonderful and worthwhile causes…blessings and Merry Christmas!

I bought my first elf fairy in New Orleans this past Summer. Of course, it’s the jester!!! My sister collects the fairies, so I decided to collect the elves. They make me smile.

Hi Mark,

Thank you so much Mr. Roberts

Hi Mark. My Aunt carries your Fairies in her store and has now for a long time. I recently started collecting them this past Christmas. I LOVE all the details you put into them. I lost my 17 month old daughter to Heart Disease. I’m remarried and have been blessed with 2 healthy children Cayden,5 & Isabella Grace,18 months whom is Miss Baby Texas. Have you ever thought about doing Fairy children or memorial fairies or Heart disease fairies? Living in a Children’s Hospital for nearly 2 years I know Fairy Children with all the beautiful colors would be great sellers. Also the for the grieving parents who have lost their child due to Heart Disease, Cancer or any other terminal illness. Just something to hang in remembrance to bring a smile back when you have to get rid or pack away their belongings with time. Thanks for your time. I absolutely LOVE the Cook book Fairies!! Great idea! Have a blessed day!

Hi Mark!
Your Aunt Mercedes wanted me to write you and tell you how thrilled she was to see the recipe Fairy with her Mom’s and Sister’s recipes! It is so important to keep traditions alive…we love you!!
January 1st, 2009 at 6:05 am
I received my first fairy at Christmas, What a delight! What a treasure! What wonderful things to collect and leave to my 6 Grandchildren! About your recipes, are you sure we are not related, my Mother’s spaghetti recipe is identical to yours! I’m sure they must be cooking together in heaven and telling everyone there, “Manga,
Manga!”
Thank you for sharing her love and joy with all of us!

Mark,
I just purchased my first Fairy for myself…I purchased a dear friend one for Christmas and she loved it so much, I decided I need to join the ranks of the collectors and make things easy on my family. They now know what to buy me! I LOVE all of the fairies!!! They are all preicous..thank you for sharing your wonderful talent!!!!
December 9th, 2008 at 8:14 am
Hi Mark,
I purchased my first Fairy - 12 Days of Christmas Fairy - at a silent auction last month and I love it. I’m planning to get at least 2 more in the upcoming year, especially the Cookbook Fairy. Your Cranberry Kielbasa recipe sounds delicious and will be on my buffet at my Christmas party this Saturday evening. Looking forward to seeing you at the Sugarland, Tx signing event. Have a Cool Yule!

Kolbasi is a type of Polish sausage Carolyn. This is really a great recipe…Some of the ladies in my office made it recently and shared it with us and I promptly went to the grocery store that same night to get everything to make the recipe at home myself.
December 2nd, 2008 at 8:15 am
what is kolbasi ? i looked at this and have no idel what it is.
November 24th, 2008 at 8:35 pm
My sister-in-law gave me the Cookbook Fairy a few months ago and I just love him…he is my first one but he won’t be my last!I hope you can come to Sacramento again soon so I can get him signed.I plan to try some of these recipes too. Thanks for the e-mail updates too, I enjoy reading about new selections.
October 24th, 2008 at 9:44 am
Mark,
I had the pleasure of meeting you in Raleigh years ago to get most of my fairies signed. Love them! The previous comment about collegiate fairies peaked my interest. What a great idea! LSU will be playing UGA this weekend so what better two teams to start with.
October 6th, 2008 at 8:52 am
Love your web site, will return to check out Christmas coming. God Bless Sincerely Bobbie
August 31st, 2008 at 2:05 pm
Hello - I am from Baton Rouge, LA and like many others from the “Red Stick,” I will be doing an LSU christmas tree along with my traditional one. I was wondering if Mr. Roberts ever thought of doing collegiate fairys. I can’t help but wonder how much more beautiful my LSU Christmas tree would be with a Mark Roberts “LSU Fairy” sitting atop it
July 20th, 2008 at 6:53 pm
My daughter inlaw has started to
collect your fairies.I bought her
one of xmas 2007 the birthday one
of March. I now want to start a
collection myself. Where can I
purchase the Cookbook Fairy for
her in Hou. Tx. Please let me know. Love the work you are doing.You touch many hearts.
Sincerely, Jeanie
April 27th, 2008 at 7:28 pm
I will be going to my new found shop tomorrow to try to purchase a fairy/hopefully I can get a cookbook fairy. My Mom passed away in Dec. 2008 and I miss her so much. Mother’s day will never be the same, but I would like to buy a fairy and let it be from my Mom.
It will be displayed in my kitchen in memory of my Mom.
I also enjoyed the recipes.
Keep up the good work.
April 22nd, 2008 at 7:22 am
Ask and sometimes we DO receive! I am currently working on my Spring 2009 line, and one of the designs is the “Wine Lover Fairy”. You will be pleasantly surprized at his snazzy outfit! If you cannot wait til 2009, check out the RETIRED FAIRIES section, where you can search retired Fairies by name. Look for the Grape Fairy…he is pretty wonderful and hopefully we can help you locate a retailer who has this.
April 21st, 2008 at 4:01 pm
Mark,
Love your Fairies. Can you do a Tuscan Fairy with grapes, wine bottle in rich tuscany colors. Love to have it overseeing my Kitchen. The receipes are a nice touch! Brings back lots of memories. Thanks, Loa
March 27th, 2008 at 6:30 pm
Mark -
How I delight in your whimsical creations! They are so dlightful. The entire line are such tresures and now you are sharing another treasure-your mother’s recipes!
Thanks for sharing…I cannot wait to bake the 4th of July cake and it has been years ago that I lost my recipe for Spaghetti Pie. Thank you, too, for the beautiful Christmas cards and calendars. They are so appreciated and enjoyed.
Warm regards and God Bless!

I am the mother of a wounded marine, and I discovered your fairies in a small shop last Easter while looking for something to hang in his window for the holiday.
It is now a little over a year of our still being away from home as he recovers from his injuries, and each holiday I’ve gone back to the shop and found a different fairy for hang in his window. They always make him laugh when he I pull out the new one, and take down the old one to pack up for his return trip home.
THank you for that laugh you bring to him with your little men.
January 17th, 2008 at 8:33 pm
I applaud your generousity toward all the various charities and wondered if you ever considered designing a fairy for autism?
January 17th, 2008 at 4:18 pm
Hi Mark,
I enjoy seeing and collecting your fairies. Every year when the new calendar arrives it brings a smile to my face each day of the year. And is given a place of honor at the head of our stairway. Thank you for your wonderful designs of fairies and home decor items. They bring such joy to so many. And how generous of you to share such memorable recipes with all of us to start new traditions. Happy designing. Have a wonderful new year!
January 3rd, 2008 at 11:23 am
I have one of the Twelve Days of Christmas fairies, 5 Golden Rings, and would VERY much like to have the other 11 days. Is there anyplace that these can still be found?
Thank you,
Kim
January 1st, 2008 at 1:47 pm
Maida,
One of my showroom staff is also a “Queen Mum” of her Red Hat Society group, and she talked me into designing a “Red Hat Fairy” a few years ago. Maybe HE is a mascot for Red Hat Ladies, as again, he is…well…he’s a he. You will find him in the RETIRED FAIRIES section, which is within the PRODUCTS tab. I believe that although his has been retired, that I still have some of the medium size in my warehouse, so your retailer would probably special order this for you if you ask them now.
Thanks for posting your comments and a Very Happy New Year!
January 1st, 2008 at 12:28 pm
Mark,
Thank you so much for bringing so much joy to so many with your precious fairies, God has blessed you with a very special talent. One of my dear friends introduced me to your sweet fairies and I treasure each one that I now own. Since you said in one of your responses that you are considering some female fairies, and being the Queen Mum of a Red Hat Society Chapter, I (and I’m sure many Red Hat sisters) would love to see you design a Red Hat Fairy for us.
Thank you and may you be blessed with health, happiness and prosperity in 2008!
Maida

I work for the March of Dimes, I would like to see you make a Santa for the March of Dimes. Please view our web site or contact them. Our new Colors are going to be really great.
Thanks

I love your fairies and put them on my wish list for Christmas. I wanted the 12 days of Christmas but as much as I love each one I received they are indistinguishable since they do not have the 5 golden rings, 2 turtle doves, etc. The larger ones have that but not the smaller ones which is what I needed. I would rather pay more and get the extras included in this size.
Got to have the hospitality fairy and the cookbook fairy!!
December 30th, 2007 at 5:42 am
That’s a good question Irene. I have done girl fairies a couple of different times, and I hate to say it, but they have not been nearly as popular amoung collectors. Never the less, that does not necessarily preclude me from coming up with some new designs in the future of some female fairies!
December 29th, 2007 at 7:41 pm
I truly treasure my Mark Roberts Fairies. The fairy created for breast cancer is special to me as members of my family have been affected by this devastating disease.
I do have a question. Why are all the fairies males? I know many would purchase female fairies.
Thanks,
Irene
December 29th, 2007 at 10:46 am
Mark, I just discovered your fairies last week and bought one for myself and one for each of my adult daughters. This will start a tradition that our future generations will love, too.
I’ve browsed your site to see more and, after seeing more fairies and reading a lot of your reponses, notes and recipes, just want to say that I love your heart.
All the best for the New Year,
Terry

How I miss my Mother’s magic touch with many of her recipes. There’s not many whom have worked the magic that she created & are still trying. I am proud that you are willing not only to share such special goodies but I would love to bless you with not only a recipe to try but a willing elf to try your magic. Just for a laugh she entered a song writing contest called “Elmer the Elf” and won $10.00. They even put it in 45rpm form, but she somehow found where I had hidden it and threw it out because she was embarassed about it for some reason! She was a lovable angel,that is missed, but is with us all in our hearts each and every day. I hope yours is to. I love your work and try to save up to own one soon especially if it is for a charitable cause. Truly, Peggy
December 23rd, 2007 at 5:17 pm
Hi Mark,
My friend, Angie Blackburn, told me about your “beautiful art”, and your ’subject: Fairies.’
Cool, you, Mark Roberts, and I know that you know this: “Are, truly, a very blessed man in many many ways!” God Bless.
Lovingly,
Rod McLean
December 12th, 2007 at 7:34 pm
Thanks Madeline! These are some of my favorite recipies of my mother, whom I lost to breast cancer in 1989. I am sure your comment makes her smile in heaven…it made my day!
December 12th, 2007 at 1:59 pm
Today we received a Christmas card,Lollipop Fairy edition from a dear friend.I have not seen these before but will tomorrow go to the two locations near me,in Waldorf. Web site is delightful and recipes will try.Sincerely, Madeline
