These adorable Cat Donuts were crafted after 'Catbread' (also known as Nekopan on the Internet). The character is commonly used as an avatar on discussion forums and is the subject of photo-manipulation that uses real cat faces that are photoshopped onto actual loafs of bread. The actual image was taken from a character that was named Neko-Pan in a Japanese children's book by Hirose Takuro. Because of its enormous popularity in Eastern and now Western shores, the Catbread face can be seen nearly anywhere -- and it has now invaded sweet snacks.
The Cat Donuts are not only adorable but delicious; these snacks would make the perfect treat for any cat lover even though they are almost too cute to eat.
