As Cole Porter sings, "Birds do it. Bees do it. Even educated fleas do it." Though Porter says it's "falling in love", let's pretend it was sex because that's what these cookies are doing. Gingerbread style Kama Sutra. This is an awesome Christmas present for the chef you want to sex up.

The book starts with getting yourself ready for sex--advice like keeping clean and feeling sexy--all with cute cookies illustrating the various points. Also, there are suggestions for some foreplay, like massage. Besides the cookie illustrations that add for a cute twist on the Kama Sutra, the explanations of the various positions illustrated have some cookie humor, too. Some of the illustrated positions include The Wheelbarrow, Tripod, and Suspended Congress.

A recipe for the cookies in the book is included. Unfortunately, how to shape them isn't explained--and that would be awesome, and even more so if the book came with some cookie cutters in these shapes. This is a sweet and sexy gift!

This is a slim volume of illustrations and explanations, a terrific gag gift or baking gift. It's more humorous than titillating. There are gingerbread girl breasts sans nipples, but no gingerbread cookie penis or testicles. One of the downsides; this is heterosexual cookie sex.

I got this as a gift some time back and was amused, but after one look through it I was done and now it sits collecting dust on my shelf. The cookie recipe isn't exceptional--I've better recipes--and I've no real intention of looking through this again. Once was enough and amusing.

This is a sweet gift, pun intended, and inexpensive, too. In the end, the cookies are in bed smoking their post-sex cigarette. You can see a preview of the book on Amazon. The price for the book is a bit high in general, no matter where you purchase it, because of the slim volume, but you're being charged for the novelty of it.
