Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 package Sponge Cake (store-bought or homemade) Use a light base.
  • 10 ounces Fresh Strawberries Look for ripe, juicy strawberries.
  • 1 cup Whipped Cream Homemade or store-bought.
  • 5 sheets Rice Paper Wrappers For sushi form.
  • as needed to taste Optional Garnishes (crushed graham crackers, mint) For finishing touch.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Slice your strawberries thinly for easy rolling.
  2. If making homemade whipped cream, beat the cream until soft peaks form and set it aside.
Assemble the Sushi
  1. Lay a rice paper wrapper on a damp surface.
  2. Spread a thin layer of sponge cake over the wrapper, leaving space at the edges.
  3. Add a layer of strawberries and a dollop of whipped cream.
Roll it Up
  1. Carefully roll the rice paper, starting from one edge and tucking as you go.
  2. Ensure the filling stays in the center as you roll.
Slice and Serve
  1. Slice the roll into bite-sized pieces.
  2. For extra flair, sprinkle with crushed graham crackers and mint leaves.

Notes

To maintain rolls, wet fingers before handling rice paper if they aren't holding together. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two days.
