Introduction

Fruity Pebbles Sushi is a fun and colorful treat that transforms a beloved cereal into playful sushi rolls. This no-bake dessert combines the crunch of Fruity Pebbles with gooey marshmallows and sweet fruit, perfect for a kid-friendly snack or a whimsical party dish.

The image shows several sushi rolls arranged closely on a white plate with a white marbled background. Each sushi roll has three layers: the outer layer is crunchy with small golden-orange and white crispy bits evenly covering it, the middle layer is a thin dark seaweed wrap, and the inner layer is creamy white filling with colorful pieces embedded inside, including red, green, blue, and yellow shapes that look like candy. The sushi rolls have a textured and vibrant look, and the focus is on the front rolls with a soft blur on the ones at the back, creating depth. Photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

Ingredients

4 cups Fruity Pebbles Cereal (Feel free to use other cereals for a flavorful variation.)
2 cups mini marshmallows (Acts as a binder and adds gooey sweetness.)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter (Helps melt the marshmallows for a creamy mixture.)
2 sheets Fruit Roll-Ups (Other fruit leathers can be used as desired.)
2 medium bananas (Alternative fruits like strawberries or kiwi work well too.)
Chocolate syrup, to taste (Drizzle it on for a delightful treat!)

Instructions

Step 1: In a pot over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter until it’s completely liquid.
Step 2: Stir in the mini marshmallows, mixing until they melt completely and form a smooth, gooey mixture.
Step 3: Remove the pot from heat and quickly fold in the Fruity Pebbles cereal until evenly coated.
Step 4: Spread the cereal mixture onto a parchment-lined surface and let it cool slightly until it’s manageable to handle.
Step 5: Lay the Fruit Roll-Up sheets flat on your workspace for assembling the sushi rolls.
Step 6: Shape the cooled cereal mixture into a rectangle about half an inch thick on the Fruit Roll-Up sheets.
Step 7: Place a banana at one end of the rectangle and roll it up tightly, encasing the banana inside the cereal mixture and fruit roll-up.
Step 8: Repeat the rolling process with the remaining cereal mixture and bananas.
Step 9: Cut each roll into sushi-sized pieces, about 1-inch thick.
Step 10: Drizzle chocolate syrup over the sushi pieces before serving for an extra touch of sweetness.

Tips & Variations

Use strawberries or kiwi in place of bananas for a refreshing twist and different flavor combination.
Swap out Fruity Pebbles for your favorite colorful cereal to customize the look and taste.
Press the cereal mixture firmly when shaping to help the rolls hold together better.
For a fun presentation, use different colored Fruit Roll-Ups or cut the sushi pieces in various shapes.

Storage

Store the Fruity Pebbles Sushi in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days to maintain crispness. Avoid refrigerating, as this can make the cereal soggy. If desired, gently warm in a microwave for a few seconds before serving to soften slightly.

How to Serve

The image shows several pieces of dessert sushi arranged on a white plate over a white marbled surface. Each piece has three visible layers: a bright colored yellow or red center, surrounded by a thick white creamy layer, and wrapped with a thin black strip resembling seaweed. The outside of each piece is covered with small crunchy round golden brown cereal bits, with some pieces also topped with small colorful candy dots in green, red, or yellow. The dessert sushi pieces are neatly cut and closely placed together, showing a mix of vibrant and light colors with a crunchy texture on the outside. Photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I use other fruits besides bananas?

Yes, strawberries, kiwi slices, or even apple sticks work well as alternatives and add delicious variety to your sugary sushi rolls.

Will the cereal get soggy if I make it ahead of time?

The cereal may soften slightly over time, especially if refrigerated. It’s best enjoyed within a day stored at room temperature to keep the crunch intact.
