Kuzefuku stores are rolling out their inaugural Cat Day Fair to celebrate February 22, Japan's Cat Day. From February 4 through February 22, 2026, these specialty shops will showcase an array of cat-themed products, including the debut of their original "Nyanko Baum" baumkuchen.
The Star of the Show: Nyanko Baum

The headliner of this fair is the limited-edition Nyanko Baum, an adorable baumkuchen shaped like a curled-up cat gazing back at you. This charming die-cut treat captures the whimsical, free-spirited nature of cats by quite literally putting them in a mold. The cocoa-flavored baumkuchen offers a sophisticated, slightly bitter sweetness that appeals to adult palates. Even the cut-out portion maintains its cuteness, making every part of this treat delightful.
Note: Available while supplies last.
