Fruity Pebbles Sushi
Looking for a colorful, no-bake treat that kids and adults will both love? 🍭 This Easy Fruity Pebbles Sushi recipe is a fun twist on classic cereal bars—rolled up into bite-sized “sushi” pieces perfect for parties, holidays, or after-school snacks.
🕒 Prep Time: 15 minutes
🕒 Cook Time: 0 minutes (no-bake)
🕒 Total Time: 15 minutes
Ingredients
- 4 cups Fruity Pebbles cereal
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 (10 oz) bag mini marshmallows
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup gummy bears, gummy worms, or fruit leather (for “filling”)
- Optional: melted white chocolate or candy melts for drizzle
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Melt the Butter and Marshmallows
In a large saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Add mini marshmallows and stir until completely melted and smooth. Stir in the vanilla extract for extra flavor.
Step 2: Mix in the Fruity Pebbles
Remove from heat and gently fold in Fruity Pebbles cereal until fully coated. Make sure every piece gets a marshmallow hug—it keeps your sushi chewy and sweet.
Step 3: Roll Out the Mixture
Place a sheet of parchment paper on a flat surface. Lightly spray a rolling pin (or your hands) with nonstick spray. Spread the Fruity Pebbles mixture into a large rectangle about ½ inch thick. Work quickly before it sets!
Step 4: Add the “Sushi” Filling
Lay gummy worms, gummy bears, or strips of fruit leather across one edge of the rectangle. These will be your fun “sushi fillings.”
Step 5: Roll It Up
Starting at the edge with the gummy candy, gently roll the Fruity Pebbles rectangle into a tight log, just like a sushi roll. Use the parchment paper to help guide the roll without sticking.
Step 6: Slice into Pieces
Once rolled, let it cool for 5 minutes. Using a sharp knife, cut into 1-inch slices to create colorful sushi pieces. Wipe the knife between cuts to keep edges neat.
Step 7: Optional Decoration
For extra flair, drizzle with melted white chocolate, candy melts, or sprinkle additional Fruity Pebbles on top before serving.
Pro Tips for Success
- Nonstick trick: Always spray your hands, spatula, or rolling pin with cooking spray before handling the mixture.
- Mix-ins: Swap gummies with mini marshmallows, licorice, or even dried fruit for variety.
- Make-ahead: Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days (they’re best fresh!).
