Learn how to make Frushi, the dessert sushi, at home! This recipe is so yummy. Frushi is one of the highlights of the Epcot festival food.
Snack time is my kids favorite time. They get to pick something out that will hold them over until dinner time but also satisfy a sweet or savory tooth. These are some of our favorite after-school snacks that are also healthy and good for you. With an occasional hint of chocolate to make it extra special. Kid approved and Mom approved for the health values!
I’ve made a lot of these myself but some I’m dying to try and keep on hand in the future. Like Fruit Sushi, also known as Frushi, which I tried while visiting Epcot this past year during the International Food and Garden Festival. You can find the recipe below.
