Christmas with Kim-Joy: a Festive Collection of Edible Cuteness

Next Level Baking

First, let’s get this out of the way. You do not have to be a baker or like baking to appreciate this book. Really, you don’t even have to like sweets. But, be forewarned, all that may change after you spend time with this book. Okay, full disclosure, I am not a baker myself, but there are 3 recipes I would like to try for sure (told you this would happen.) The Lemon & Cinnamon Swirl Bundt Cake with trees and a sugar glass balloon; Marshmallow Seals in a White Chocolate Igloo and the Owl Apple Pies. They just look enjoyable and intriguing. Making this book even more enjoyable are directions that are easy to follow, vegan alternatives, and cookie decorations that are just too cute. A big plus is that the ingredients are available at local grocery stores. Edible paint and an edible pen are mentioned as ingredients. These are available at a craft store or grocery store that has a baking, party, or wedding department. Also, edible paint can be a do-it-yourself project. In closing, Kim-Joy gives a reminder that tasty mistakes will happen so enjoy the process of creative baking without the worry of your baked good being perfect.
