1

Prepare the Sushi Rice

Start by cooking sushi rice according to the package instructions. Once cooked, let it cool down to room temperature.

2

Choose Your Fillings

Now comes the fun part - deciding what fillings you want in your sushi cake! Common options include fresh fish, avocado, cucumber, and crab sticks. Get creative and choose your favorites!

3

Prepare the Fillings

Slice your chosen fillings into thin strips. Make sure they are all about the same size for even distribution in the cake.

4

Create the Base

In a round mold or cake pan, layer a portion of sushi rice to create the base of your cake. Press it down firmly to make sure it holds its shape.

5

Add the Fillings

Layer your chosen fillings on top of the rice base. Be generous with your portions to create beautiful layers of flavors and colors.

6

Repeat the Layers

Add another layer of sushi rice on top of the fillings, pressing it down gently. Then, add another layer of fillings. Repeat this process until you run out of rice and fillings.

7

Decorate with Style

Now it's time to let your creativity shine! Arrange some extra fillings and garnishes on top of the cake to make it visually appealing. You can use thinly sliced vegetables, fish roe, or even edible flowers!

8

Chill and Set

Place your sushi cake in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to allow it to set. This will make it easier to slice and serve.

9

Unmold and Serve

Carefully remove the mold or cake pan, revealing your masterpiece. Use a sharp knife to slice the sushi cake into wedges or pieces. Serve with soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger for an authentic sushi experience.
