As someone who loves Squishmallows so much this was the best thing ever. There are so many tasty treats in here I can’t wait to create myself and I love the little intro to each treat with talking about the Squishmallow that makes it.

What a cute little cookbook! I was genuinely surprised by the level of the recipes in here. I was expecting a book of child-friendly, novice-level recipes but found that there were a lot of delicious sounding recipes for people with more intermediate cooking and baking experience. The illustrations are adorable, and the food photography was well shot. As a Squishmallow collector, I really liked the little blurbs with the recipes connecting them to the different characters, and I could see it being fun to create the dish that matches with my niece's favorite squish of the week to share with her. Do be aware that almost all of the recipes in this book are for sweets, and there are only a couple of savory options. This far exceeded my expectations for a Squishmallow themed cookbook.

Perfect baking book for all the Squishmallow fans out there! Super cute and all the baked goods look amazing! 5 stars!

This baking book is just the cutest! I was able to try a couple of the smoothies in back after going through the book and not only were they delicious but the directions were easy to follow. There are a few more advanced recipes like Macarons and Ice Cream Cake that require a bit of prior baking knowledge but I think someone who wasn't an avid baker could follow along and have success! It's also a great gift for a young baker or something to buy for the whole family for a day a baking fun!

There is so much wrong with Squshmallows: The Official Baking Book that I hardly know where to start. Let’s start with the rampant money grab, although I’m not sure that’s the worst part.

Like so many other franchises, the original product spawns an entire empire of spinoffs: toys, clothes, picture books, dollhouses, keychains, scrunchies, calendars, bedding and, yes, even a cookbook. Since Strawberry Shortcake invented behemoth marketing, parents have had a hard time not having their entire paycheck consumed by the latest fad.

The rampant commercialization is sad. Each recipe is said to come from a different Squishmallow pal (Buy me! Buy me! is the tacit message) while “crafted with love and a sprinkle of squishy magic.” (Yuck!) But the recipes themselves are problematic because the vast majority of them are much too difficult for a child young enough to collect Squishmallows. Can you imagine a 10-year-old making Claudia’s Key Lime Pies, which requires separating eggs, zesting limes and filling tart rings? Right, me neither. How about Edie’s Easter Fridge Cake, which requires using a double boiler? How about Satine’s Carrot Cake? Not only does the recipe require shredding carrots (sure, let a kid use a box grater) and zesting an orange, but the recipe requires a child to make marzipan carrots. Right! In other words, this is a cookbook to saddle your mother with extra work.

You might be seeing a pattern with the recipes: Except for Winston’s Cheesy Scones, Veronica’s Pretzels and a few of the beverages, everything produced are sugary snacks, desserts or drinks. At a time when one out of five American children is clinically obese, this cookbook is probably not the best thing to give a child. The author is listed as the Original Squishmallows, which I understand because who would want to have their name attached to this abomination?

In the interest of full disclosure, I received this book from NetGalley, Quarto Publishing Group – White Lion and White Lion Publishing in exchange for an honest review.

With 50 recipes included, Squishmallows: The Official Baking Book is sure to keep Squishmallow fans busy in the kitchen. Most young fans will need help with these recipes, but making them together with caregivers will create plenty of bonding opportunities along the way.

The colorful graphics and bright photography make this cookbook a fun one to peruse, and each recipe includes a cute introduction relating to a Squishmallow character.

I am especially eager to try out the recipes for Claudia’s Key lime pies, Edie’s Easter egg fridge cake, Genevieve’s macarons, and Sassafras’s chocolate orange Bundt cakes.

I received an advance copy of the Kindle version from Quarto Publishing Group and White Lion Publishing. All review opinions are my own.

This is the CUTEST cook book ever!!! My kids LOVE Squishmallows and would absolutely love this book. They also love baking, so double amazing! This book has such cute little "Squishmallow" foods like cookies, brownies, pies, sweet treats and even drinks! I think it's adorable and would be really fun baking these goodies along side my kids.

This was simply adorable. Really cute concept to match the Squishmallows with the recipes and the illustrations are colorful and eye catching. My daughter loves Squishmallows and this is going to be a fun way to keep her engaged while we try some recipes out. They all look delicious, can't wait to try some like: Robb's banana loaf, Sunny's honey buns and Manny's gingerbread houses for the holidays. The drinks section was really nice too.

Thank you to NetGalley and Quarto Publishing Group for the opportunity to read this ARC and share my honest review.

Fantastic bright, colourful and cheerful book of baking, I look forward to trying many, many of the recipes within, it’s written in easy to follow steps, clearly explains them too. Lovely colour pictures of each recipe, a very appealing cookbook and a great gift for any bakers in your life.

This is a fun concept with a really adorable design. I was expecting somewhat simpler recipes that were more kid friendly but that's not the case with all of these--some of them are quite complex (though that may be because I'm not a talented baker by any stretch) and take more than one page. This book would be perfect for themed parties for fans of Squishmallows young and old. I love that drink recipes are included as well, but these aren't simple either (see ingredients such as elderflower cordial). I'll have to try my hand at some of these during this upcoming winter!

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC. All opinions are my own.

What a cute read! I feel like this one's a perfect book to have for parents. Something to do with your children. It would be really fun experience to have. I liked the illustrations, they were so beautiful and cute. The recipes also were straightforward and simple with an easy approach. Baking beginners also can also benefit from this book with it's basic recipes. We also have some intricate recipes for the brave. Not just kids but friends and family can bake together and just... have fun.

Thanks to the publisher for this ARC!

Amazing illustration, photography and overall presentation! As a squishmallow collector is such a cool idea to have these recipes to recreate the plushy. It could’ve been slightly better if there were some images for the drink section as well. But overall, a very cute and easy to understand recipe book.

This cookbook wasn't only cute but the recipes were tasty! As a mother of 6 kids I try to bake with and for my kids as often as possible, this little nugget is filled to the brim with fun and appetizing recipes. What I really appreciated was that the measures were in grams not only in cups, as I live in Europe, it isn't something I'm really used to. With this book you're not only covered for Halloween treats but also Christmas, Easter and birthdays. The kids loved the small presentations of each Squishmallow before each recipe, and I have to admit, it's cute.

I adored this! Just as adorable as the beloved squishmallow teddies. The pictures are beautiful, the layout is great, the recipes sound delicious and I love the way they tie into a squishmallow character. I definitely need this for my collection, I can't wait to try some of these sweet treats!

Great recipes and eye-catching presentation.
I wish there were more savoury recipes but I understand that it must be difficult to include them due to most savoury bakes not reminding you of squishmallows.
Would be great to see the photos of the drinks.

Omg how cute is this book my kids loved looking at the bakes and thought the links to Sqishmallows was so cool, we cant wait to bake some of the delicious goodies!

Any child (or adult!) who loves Squishmallows will be enthralled by these recipes inspired by the squishy fluffs. All recipes are easy to follow and suitable for all skill levels.
