If you’re a cat person, have I got the cookbook for you.
I attempted Kim-Joy’s whimsical but more technical bakes such as the pudgy 3D Cookie Cats, which I assembled by rolling and pressing together different-sized portions of dough: small spheres for the ears and paws, a medium-size blob for the head, a larger oval for the torso, and a tiny little baton for the tail. Individual sprinkles, which I painstakingly placed onto each face with, served as whiskers below eyes dotted with an edible ink pen.
My take on Pavlov’s Cat was unfortunately not as cute as the one pictured in the book—a traditional pavlova with layers of crisp meringue, fresh fruit, and whipped cream, but topped with meringue cats. Thoughisn’t a particularly hard dessert to make, piping the cats proved to be a challenge, and my meringue cats looked more like lumpy Halloween ghosts, a disaster. But it was delicious, and for the first time in a long time, I didn’t care about perfection simply because it was so fun to make.
“We have a lot to learn from cats,” Kim-Joy tells me. “They’re secure in what they want, and they live in the moment. They’re not thinking about the past or the future, just the here and now. I think that is a good message to take across to baking.” Thanks to Kim-Joy’s book, I can bake myself a cat whenever I want, but I can also be a little more like Star and Marino in my baking life, moving in the kitchen with more carelessness, frivolity, and confidence. Because in the end, according to Kim-Joy: “Cats look like cats as long as you give them ears and a face.”
