Cantik Manis is an art book/cookery book named after a popular Indonesian sweet that translates directly to 'pretty and sweet'. As such, the book moves through memory and recipe in equal measure, reflecting on sweetness as a narrative of beauty, gender and the politics of perception.Playful, flirtatious and full of intention, what begins as a tribute to a childhood favourite opens into a wider meditation on visibility and voice.
