Candy Sushi is Perfect for a Fun Dessert or Birthday Party Treat

Seriously, how cute and sweet (literally) is this candy sushi platter?  Nigiri-style, maki-style, plus candy wasabi and ginger! If you’ve got the prep time, it’s so worth the effort. What a great excuse to head to the bulk store for a bunch of gummy treats and spend an afternoon making classic Rice Krispie squares!
