I absolutely live for sushi. My boyfriend is only slowly learning how to eat raw fish, but I try to ease him into it with maki and cooked ingredients. It’s one of our favourite foods, so when I came across these mochi and fruit sushi desserts by Tiny Urban Kitchen, I almost squealed with excitement.

Sushi is healthy and tasty, and this creative alternative is the same! I love mochi (and my friends will know I intend to name my puppy that), so I am especially crazy about these sushi look-a-likes. Strawberries, mangoes and blackberries are a delicious companion to mochi. A sushi bar would be a great idea for a sushi-loving couple, and this fruit version seems like a cute option for non-fish eaters to join in on the fun.

Head over to Just Bento for the full recipe and instructions. I can’t wait to make these for us, and I hope you enjoy them too.
