Mega Yummy Crochet Book Review – 26 Larger Than Life Amigurumi Treats You’ll Want to Make (Not Eat)

February 24, 2026 by Shellie Wilson

You know those crochet projects that make you do a double take because they look so real you swear you can smell the sugar? This is that kind of book.

Mega Yummy Crochet: 26 Larger Than Life Amigurumi Treats by Miya is bright, playful, and completely unapologetic about being cute. It’s all oversized crochet food — the kind kids want to cuddle, teens want on their bed for decor, and adults want to make just because it’s ridiculously fun.

If you’ve been looking for crochet plush food patterns, giant amigurumi ideas, or a unique gift-making book that isn’t the usual teddy bear situation, this one is a delight.

What Is Mega Yummy Crochet About?

This crochet pattern book is all about larger-than-life amigurumi treats — oversized crochet food that looks like sweets, snacks, and fun desserts made into plush toy projects.

These aren’t tiny keychain macarons. These are big, squishy, hug-worthy crochet pieces.

If you’ve been searching for:

– crochet food plush patterns
– giant amigurumi food crochet
– cute crochet dessert patterns
– crochet play food patterns
– unique crochet gifts for kids

This book sits right in that sweet spot.

Why This Book Is So Much Fun

The biggest charm of Mega Yummy Crochet is that it feels cheerful and modern. It’s the kind of crochet book that would be perfect for:

– Kids’ room decor
– Play kitchens and pretend play
– Fun market stall items (they absolutely stop people walking past)
– Gifts for nieces, nephews, and grandkids
– Crochet props for photo shoots
– Anyone who loves kawaii-style crochet

Oversized projects also have a sneaky little bonus: you can see progress fast. There’s nothing like a big crochet piece to make you feel productive in one sitting.

What You’ll Find Inside

Mega Yummy Crochet includes patterns built around bold shapes and fun texture. Expect:

– Clear shaping and construction
– Bright, happy finished pieces
– Texture details that make treats look realistic
– Layered elements (toppings, swirls, stripes, sprinkles)
– Assembly techniques for plush crochet projects

If you like amigurumi but want something bigger and more “wow” than a small animal, these patterns are a brilliant change of pace.

Skill Level and Who This Book Is For

This book is best for confident beginners to intermediate crocheters. You’ll want to be comfortable with:

– Working in the round
– Increasing and decreasing
– Basic shaping and stuffing
– Sewing parts together (toppings, layers, details)

It’s great for:

– Crochet makers who love plushies
– Toy makers and gift givers
– Anyone who wants fun, modern crochet projects
– Craft fair sellers wanting bold statement items

And if you’re making for little ones, these big squishy projects are far more huggable than small fiddly amigurumi.

Is Mega Yummy Crochet Worth Buying?

If you’re searching for:

– oversized amigurumi patterns
– crochet food plushies
– cute crochet treat patterns
– playful crochet gift ideas
– modern crochet toy books

Then yes, this is a fun one to add to your crochet bookshelf.

It’s cheerful, creative, and perfect for anyone who wants crochet projects that look impressive without being overly complicated.

Also… it’s the only kind of dessert that won’t mysteriously disappear from the kitchen overnight.
