Faux sushi? Oh heck yeah! I’ve actually tried this sushi candy in the video below, but my end result ended up looking more like a mis-shapen wad of gum. Watch the pro:
If you’re not into the geeky sushi, you can make them out of rice crispies and fruit roll-ups like Mommy Knows. Sugar me out, baby!
From Twinkies and Swedish Fish like Not Martha and more here at Evil Mad Scientist.
The fish here is actually pieces of dried fruit like mango and papaya – from Dabbled
Peepshi = Peeps Sushi on Serious Eats
Sushi Cupcakes made from sprinkles, fondant and butter cream from Not So Humble Pie and a great step-by-step on The Party Animal.
Jellybeans for the “roe”, piece of lemon cake for the “tamago” from Vivian’s Blog-o-Rama

OMG! Sweet! Love the candy version of sushi! Tried sushi before and didn’t quite like it, but the candy version is a must! Thank you for this post! I love sweets! 🙂
I’ve seen this before! It sort of bothers me… The context is so wrong.
Wow! That is awesome.
Thanks for the shout-out! I love your blog 🙂
Hi, I’ve made “candy sushi” before in the form of watermelon caviar. The process might seem complicated at first but is actually very simple. Check out the article I wrote to learn how to make watermelon caviar!

Thanks!
Wow!! Love love sushi, even better there is candy sushi! What a beautiful cake 😉
These are so cool and creative!
Oh wow… I’m not sure if I prefer these or real sushi. How about one for mains and one for dessert? 🙂
These are wild! But I think I’ll stick to the real thing….
OK, I just looked at the video… and is it me or did it feel a little like “Easy Bake Oven”, except nothing was baked. I think I prefer the twinkie/rice crispie/donut versions, using gummy fish and fruit roll-ups than that strange powdery gelatinous stuff!
Those candy sushi are too cute… people are so creative!
Wow! This is really interesting. Though I’m half japanese, I never knew such a thing existed. I certainly learn something new everyday. Thanks for sharing 🙂
My kids and I love to make Candy Sushi. I posted about it a few months ago. Easy and really fun for all ages.

Very creative! But I can’t bring myself to eating sweet sushi!!! No way 🙂
Those peeps are bad wrong. But I love ’em.
These are seriously cute!
