Great baking book
I am an avid baker and love so many things about this book. The photography is gorgeous, the recipes are clear with lots of photos, and the techniques used range from beginner to intermediate. I like that it has recipes I’m comfortable with and some that challenge me. I’m also gluten free and all the recipes can be easily converted- some of them even use naturally gluten free flours (sweet rice flour, for example) which makes me so happy! Some of the ingredients may be unfamiliar, but they are worth the try. If you aren’t sure about the flavors, I would recommend walking the Asian section of your grocery store to find something with the same flavor- sample some sesame seed cookies before you buy the paste, just in case you don’t like it. Try a matcha latte at Starbucks before you get the tea powder- it can be expensive!This book is a great introduction to basic patisserie techniques and unique Asian flavors, as well as adorable versions of familiar bakes.

Most adorable cookbook
I bought this as a housewarming gift for a friend. Though I haven't made anything from the book, I read through all the recipes. Every recipe is styled to look like Pusheen. There is a variety of foods, but mostly desserts. The recipes are described in thorough detail and there are lots of pictures demonstrating various steps of the recipe. Recipes vary in difficulty -- there are quite a few difficult recipes but there are also easier ones to balance it out. All of the recipes are cute. Even if you were to never bake anything from this book, it is cute enough to be worth a spot on your bookshelf as a collector item.

SO cute
I love this little book! Everything is so darling. The recipes are well written and easy to understand. I’m disappointed with other reviewers saying the ingredients are unattainable - have you heard of ordering them off Amazon if you’re in a pickle? Besides that, this cookbook DOES have special ingredients you can’t usually find in a regular podunk store. I think it’s a really fun way to venture into different kinds of baking though. The products are pretty inexpensive so it’s not too much of a hassle. If you’ve got the basics of baking down - can measure, fold ingredients, sift, separate eggs, stuff like that - this cookbook can definitely get you further into your baking journeys :)

Adorable, with some caveats
If you really love Pusheen, you will love this. It is adorable, colorful, and the instructions are detailed. That said, I returned it. I am an avid home baker, but by no means an expert. Several of these recipes are fairly complicated and require specialty ingredients. For example, several recipes call for cold gelatin sheets. I'm sure substitutions could be made but none are given in the book. If you adore Pusheen and are interested in 40 different ways to recreate her, and aren't intimidated by the ingredients and techniques, you will LOVE this book. I think I'd mostly end up making the cookies and donuts and that wasn't worth it for me.

Love this Pusheen cookbook!
When we first heard Pusheen will be releasing a new cookbook, we preordered this right away! Recipes are easy to follow with clear photos and there are templates included. There are recipes for all skill levels. We made the Pusheen Shaker Cookies in the photo and we must say that the recipes will require some time to make (even the easy recipes). This is mostly due to presentation and making the Pusheen character perfect! When attempting to make a recipe, we highly recommend allotting some time to make it. If you want to see a video of how we made the Pusheen Shaker Cookies from the book, check out our YouTube channel - Our Pusheen Addiction

Not your everyday cookbook. Fun for the adventurous baker.
If you're like me, you read the reviews. I ended up ordering this just to see what's advance about this cookbook in particular since it should be a basic cute-thing baking book. Well, there are recipes like your standard "shaker/snowglobe" cookies that appear on Pinterest around the holidays and I am leaning to try that butter cookie recipe...But a lot of the recipes are very much in line with Asian baking such as a recipe for raindrop cake and a cupcake recipe that uses to steam. While this will be daunting for most US bakers, this does inspire me to try out these new recipes and techniques. Also a possible visit to your local Asian market for some of the items.Overall, this book was a surprise since I wasn't expecting a lot of the recipes to be of the kind you'll get in dessert cafes in Asia and the coastal areas. So if you're the type that always wanted to try to bake or taste one of those Social Media worthy desserts or just want to get out of your baking comfort zone after you tackled some European baking after watching the Great British Bake Off, you might want to pick this book up.The only downside is that the pastel pusheen cheesecake cup recipe uses gelatin so it's a no-bake cheesecake which makes me a sad baked cheesecake fan. :(
