Our first ever collaboration "Come out and play" happened in May, 2026.
Andrea designed 2 keychains and 3 stickers, celebrating this collaboration as well as our Asian American Heritage.
Our second collaboration "Summer Neko Matsuri" happened in August, 2026.
We were both going to vend at the SJ MADE Summer Fair and thought that we should collab on something fun together!
Andrea designed 5 cookie cutters to be 3D printed, and we made them into a Summer Neko Matsuri Cookie Box as well as a TakoNYANki Cookie Pack!
bao by andrea was created when Andrea decided that she would doodle something once a day in 2020. She gathered her favorite things while watching her youngest cat, bao, zoomed around the house. Looking at the little fur-ball with such a big personality, Andrea decided to set off the journey to create the adventure for them both in a boundless world.
Andrea loves stories. She believes that stories not only come from words and physical experiences, but they can also come from the minds and the emotions. In her doodles and illustrations, Andrea focuses on telling a story from the tiniest feeling(s) and validating them. Whether it be just looking at the sky and realizing how celeste it is today, or catching a melody that makes you feel a little melancholy.
We also made a custom cookie cutter and included bao in the special Formosa Cookie Box 2.0!
The TakoNYANki Cookie Pack is our first ever umami cookie pack!
- White Miso Black Sesame bao
- Bonito Takoyaki
- Seaweed Takoyaki
The Summer Neko Matsuri Cookie Box contained 5 different cookies:
- Apple Sugar Jinbei bao
- Genmaicha Nekosama
- Dragonfruit Matsuri Flag x Black Peach Tea Glaze
- Pineapple Passionfruit Hanabi
- Watermelon Paloma Sugar Hanabi
