While trying to come up with recipes for the Dinotopia cookbook, I keep wondering if maple syrup would be an acceptable ingredient there. Do ya’ll think that they would have any maple syrup trees perhaps in the colder regions? Just curious because I absolutely love maple syrup and like to use it as a cane sugar substitute. ;D

Well isn't Treetown atop a grove of maple trees? But It would make sense for there to be maple trees in the mountains.

Was it maple trees? I thought it was a different type of trees, though I can't remember the name. I'm probably wrong though. Sure wish I had ALAFT with me at the moment, but I'm usuing a college library computer and there's no room in my school bag for Dinotopia books.

Nope I was wrong it was a forest of Oaks, not maples, but if they have oaks, then they probably have maples, seeing as they live in the same type of climate.

What is ALAFT? Maybe I should start reading the Dinotopia books (once I find them), then I could be of more help. ;D

Tree town is FAMOUS for its Oak Trees... Still if it had maple trees it'd be better, sugar supply-wise. Think of that, tapping maple sap from your own tree-house. Excellent idea.

Who says there aren't maple trees on Dinotopia? There are vast regions of the Backbone Mountains that we haven't seen in the books yet. I say, YES! There are Maple Trees on Dinotopia=) Hey, I like those little maple candies and wouldn't want to deprive Azzy of them!

Great! I'll make an alteration on my chocolate cake recipe then. ;D It's way better if there's maple syrup in it.

I'll have to have a go at making that cake if you add the maple syrup to it! Sounds really yummy.

Maple syrup sweetened chocolate cake? Sounds great. *licks lips* I'll have to try that if I ever end up in the USA again.
