Model:

class Category extends AppModel {
var $name = 'Category';
var $hasMany = array('Product');
}

Controller:

If you want to call methods from Category (or other associated) model you have to do it through the 'parent' (in this case Prodcut) model:

$categories = $this->Product->Category->find('all', array('order' => 'Category.id ASC'));

should work.
