Description

A fun and fruity dessert twist on sushi, filled with sweet cream and fresh strawberries. Perfect for parties, picnics, or a playful treat.


Ingredients

1 pound pound cake or sponge cake (store-bought or homemade), sliced thin

1 cup heavy whipping cream

2 tablespoons powdered sugar

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup fresh strawberries, diced

1/4 cup strawberry jam (optional, for spreading)

Powdered sugar, for dusting

Parchment paper or sushi mat, for rolling


Instructions

In a bowl, whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla until stiff peaks form.

Lay out a large piece of parchment paper or a sushi mat and place a single layer of pound cake slices side by side, slightly overlapping, to form a rectangle.

Gently press the cake together to seal and flatten slightly with a rolling pin.

Spread a thin layer of strawberry jam over the cake (optional), then spread whipped cream evenly on top.

Sprinkle diced strawberries along one edge.

Carefully roll the cake into a log, using the parchment paper or mat to guide.

Wrap tightly and chill for at least 30 minutes to firm up.

Slice into “sushi” pieces and dust with powdered sugar before serving.

Notes

Use chocolate cake for a chocolate-strawberry variation.

Add crushed freeze-dried strawberries for extra flavor and texture.

Substitute whipped cream with cream cheese frosting for a richer version.

Serve with dipping sauces like strawberry puree or melted white chocolate.
