Cakes & Curios: A Zine About Inedible Desserts

Welcome to a sugar-dusted dreamworld where desserts come to life—and none of them are edible (but all of them are adorable). In Cakes & Curios, you’ll meet a mermaid lounging in a boba lagoon, the sweetest zombie popcorn, marshmallow birds nesting in jello, and a cotton candycorn who grants dessert wishes. Created by Lynne Yun of Space Type and Ojeon, this zine features 16 whimsical treats, from the Mango Ice Fox and Fluff Centaur Cupcake to Pistachio Dillo and the ever-faithful Banana Split Boat. Part illustrated menu, part fantasy art book, it’s perfect for lovers of cute creatures, cozy sweets, and confections with a curious twist.
