ABOUT THE BOOK ◢

Bake Joy with 35 easy, creative, joyful bakes for every skill level and age.

Think back to baking as a child: it was messy, imperfect, and always so much fun. In this book, Kim-Joy encourages you to find joy in the process of baking and connect with your inner child. With 35 effortless recipes, all decorated in Kim-Joy's signature style, this imaginative book brings a dose of magic to your kitchen, reminding you to Bake Joy.

The book is split into three chapters, each with a focus on one aspect of mental wellbeing. You'll find therapeutic recipes with an emphasis on rest, and stress-free recipes intended to unlock your creativity, all decorated with super-cute, achievable characters and faces. Finally, discover a multitude of recipes that celebrate difference, adorned with kooky and sometimes spooky decorations, like witches, ghosts, and faces.

Unlock your inner child and Bake Joy.
