candy sushi | Tania's Design Studio

My youngest son Karlo, has been into anything and everything ninja for the past few years, so last year I created a sweet little party to honor his wishes. I am anxiously waiting to share pictures of the this years superhero party, but waiting for a feature on Amy Atlas Events before I show you all the fabulous details! So here is Karlo’s 3rd birthday ninja party!

One of the main design elements was the ‘rising sun’ and it was used for the cupcake toppers and the birthday banner.

I had so much fun making the rice krispy sushi! It was beyond easy, so yummy and even more…it was so pretty!

I used the individually wrapped krispy treats and then cut them out with a sharp knife and circular cookie cutter. If the cookie cutter or knife got too sticky, I just smeared some butter what I was cutting with and all is well. Fruit roll ups are used for the seaweed and the red “roe” are sprinkles, but they look very realistic!

I found that the red Swedish fish looked and worked best for the sashimi!

I bought the cake from Safeway :) then I used the cake bunting and graphic cutout to make it look custom, so simple and cute!

Straw flags were used to decorate the fruit and veggies, making them more enticing for those little fingers!

I hope a little ninja master will enjoy this party theme as much as my little Karlo did!

My older son is now into TMNT, for those who don’t know the acronym, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and his birthday is fast approaching. Party planning is in full swing for that theme!
