Kracie Popin' Cookin' Sushi Making Kit

I happened across this on a Youtube video and had to buy 2 of these kits. One for myself and one for my niece who I think will love it. Experience wise, this is totally worth the price. A lot of mixing and getting the powders in the right compartments. The "roe" is really a cool reaction as well and if all it was, was that, it'd still be worth it. The instructions are obviously not in English, but the pictures are easy enough to follow. (Plus, you can also watch someone make it on Youtube as well if you need help).Flavor-wise, the "seaweed" part was my favorite flavor/texture. The "roe" was also pretty good. The egg and salmon had a gritty texture, almost like applesauce. The rice was just sweet, but fun to play with. I wouldn't crave this, but you're really getting the experience of making the sushi rather than looking for a great tasting candy.Shipping speed was also quite reasonable, as well.

I love all the poppin cookin kits and have been buying them for years. This one is my favorite. It's just a little fun treat to every once in a while.

Our 18 year old granddaughter loves anything "Japanese" and was hoping for a play-set of the "real" Japanese style candy-making kits. This is a Christmas gift, and I am glad I ordered early as it took over 3 weeks for its shipment to arrive and, unlike another product from this company which arrived well-packaged in bubble wrap, this one came in a torn manila envelope, taped around the package with no bubble wrap or other protective packing. It looked like the outer package may have been opened for inspection but the inner actual package was intact. We had to laugh as there was a "billing slip enclosed with the package which "boasted of how the packages from this company are sent securely packaged and protected"... Sorry, but a torn manila envelop wrapped around the item doesn't count as secure packaging! As it comes from Japan, there is also no way to track the package and, unlike other Amazon purchases which wait close to when they actually ship the item to charge you for it... we were charged at the time of order, not really knowing when/if the item would ship, or when/if it would arrive. Other than that it is a cute little item and if you can put up with the uncertainty of the packaging (as another product from this same company arrived well packaged with bubble-wrap). Despite that, it is a good and inexpensive gift!

It was really cute and fun to do! The only downside was that the directions were not in English, but translated directions were easy to find on my phone. The packets of powder are color-coded, so it wasn't hard to figure out. It makes 3-4 pieces of candy sushi.Making the faux salmon eggs was really cool, the fluffy rice tasted like cotton candy, and the textured mixing tray left indentations to make the pink and yellow gelatin look like tuna and egg ingredients! The seaweed wrapper was eh, but the soda-tasting soy sauce was a great touch. The process was a little more complex than I expected, but it was fun (like a silly no-pressure science experiment) and resulted in great bonding time with my little sister. The salmon roe was her favorite part: you mix two liquids, then use the dropper to drop orange droplets into the clear liquid to make little fruity spheres that pop in your mouth!The best part? All it needs is water! No ice water, no heat, just pain old room temp water. 10/10 would buy again ^^

This was a lot of fun to make with my little brother. It was actually quite tasty BUT the "rice" has an extremely weird and off putting texture. It's a very small gummy making set, but fun to do with younger kids. Oh and do pay attention to the quantity of water you use to make the "salmon" and "egg roll" add too much, it will soft set and fall apart on you. the instructions are in Japanese seeing as this is Japanese imported candy, but there are helpful pictures that show a clear picture of what to do if you can't read it and there is always YouTube vids to help you grasp a clearer understanding of the instructions if Japanese happens to fail to be in your repertoire. My brother didn't care for it much but I thought it was cute and tasty. Downside: it seriously doesn't come with much, so it's a tad too pricey for my liking.

Well, you kind of expect the same from every Popin Cooking kit-- The process tends to be more fun than the candy is good, and this is no different. My kids love the Japanese treats and my daughter (who is 12) liked putting this all together and presenting it on a sushi plate (she accidentally ripped the package wrong when she opened it and the "sushi plate" which is printed on the wrapper was torn-- so open with scissors if you want to use it!) I got to try some of the treats myself-- The Nori is yummy (like a tootsie roll-- but grape) and the "rice" wasn't too bad (a nice flavor, a texture that takes some getting used to), and the "roe" was yummy. The only thing she and I didn't like was the fake raw meats-- again, it's not a flavor issue, but a texture issue, and these were too weird for me to get used to. :-) All in all-- a lot of fun, though and I think when you buy Popin Cooking (and Kracie) treats, you have to know what to expect. They are more fun than delicious.

I loved this DIY kit, I didn't make it as nicely as the videos, box, or anything, but it was super fun to make! Should be noted all the candy is in grape flavor in this kit, and I don't like grape flavored candy, but my mom loved to eat my sloppy made DIY kit candy! It's a bit messy but not too bad, i'd still recommend putting paper towels underneath the tray as you're stirring and making your candy! It does have a weird texture when you eat it, but it's also from another country, an exotic twist on grape flavored candy, and it's probably closer to the tastes of japanese candy in general, so don't buy it expecting it to taste how it would if the product originated from your country. The texture will be exotic, and you probably won't be prepared for it. It's a nice little culture ride though, searching for the youtube videos of how to make the candy, excited when you see something fun came in the mail from Japan even! It came in super fast too, wasn't estimated till August 28th - September 17th (or around those dates) and mine came in on August 7th! Jeez that's quick~

I, like many others, ordered this wonderful product after seeing it featured in RRcherrypie's Youtube videos. The minute it came in the mail I just had to sit down and put it together. Everything was pretty easy to construct and assemble, but what really made me glad I ordered this was the process of making the fish eggs. As I'm not terribly familiar with the territory, some of my fish eggs came out looking a little bit long or deformed, but once I put them on top of the rice they looked and smelled great!Overall this was a really fun product and everything tasted great, save for the rice, which smelled a lot better -- it had some sort of odd salty aftertaste I'm not sure was intentional. Regardless, I'd give this product five stars just for the fun of making it and putting it together - you definitely won't regret buying this one.

Il risultato è striminzito e praticamente solo zucchero e gelatina di agar agar, peró è un’esperienza fantastica per piccoli e grandi. Buoni i gusti

Facile à faire une fois qu on a vu le tuto sur YouTube (pas besoin du son, la vidéo suffit).J'ai fait d'autres packs de bonbons de cette marque, c'est cette boîte la plus ludique. Résultat final bof au visuel mais ça nous a occupé 45mn et ma fille a adoré les faire et les manger, même si goût très chimique. A partir de 4 ans minimum avec l aide d'un grand. Reçu en seulement une semaine

This kit has no english instructions but you can find them online using a QR code on the box. It's a bit hidden, but it's there. The candy works exactly as suggested and turned out great. Making the salmon roe was worth the price alone. So fun. I wish they explained how it works for a science element! The taste is not great, mostly because the rice is banana flavour, and that's not to my liking.

Juego creativo, divertido y delicioso. No entiendo cómo ha tardado tanto en llegar a España. Aunque las instrucciones vengan en japonés el juego es muy intuitivo y si no siempre se puede ver un tutorial en Youtube

Ich habe das Sushi-DIY-Set für meine beiden Schwestern als Geschenk bestellt. Leider gab es Verzögerungen bei der Lieferung. Aber darüber kann ich hinweg sehen. Immerhin befinden wir uns in der Vorweihnachtszeit und das Produkt kam direkt aus Japan.Die Zubereitung mit den verschiedenen Pülverchen hat viel Spaß gemacht und das Ergebnis war ebenfalls überraschend positiv. ;) Laut einigen Vorrednern nicht genießbar, aber wir mochten es. Der Geschmack ist zwar etwas gewöhnungsbedürftig (und auch die spezielle Konsistenz) aber gerade das war das Interessante daran - mal was anderes!Meine Schwestern waren komplett begeistert und auch ich hatte Spaß beim Helfen und Zuschauen.Ich würde das Set auf jeden Fall wieder kaufen.
