Dessert Sushi - Play With Food l
There’s nothing like April Fools Day to inspire the masses to think of creative ways to test their cooking fu. Whether you get off on creating unusual artistic foods or just want to be silly, here’s the first installment in my ongoing April series 101 Ways to Play With Food….
(ideas #1 to 16)
You might love it, or might hate it, but sushi has inspired a whole new level of food fun; from the original Twinkie roll recipe (by Clare Crespo) to Not Martha’s powdered donut gummi fish maki, and LJ Food Porn chocolate sushi.
Check out the super Hostess Sushi page, Alan’s Hostess sushi, and some homemade cupcake coconut sushi. There’s also the popular Rice Cripsy and Fruit Roll Up versions one, two, and three…plus a double whammy of mini muffin sushi and homemade giant fortune cookies.
If you want to pass up the corner store junk food and go gourmet you’ll definitely get some inspiration from Haagan Dazs ice cream sushi, Kooki-ku chocolate sushi, superlicious fondant sushi cupcakes (shown in pic, by Debbie Does Cakes), or dessert sushi from Toronto chef Renee Foote.
Update: Brownie Points Blog has a great post up on their experiments with candy sushi. They’ve even included a recipe for vanilla marshmellows which you can use as tamago.
