Koo-Ki Sushi Chocolate Lovers Now Have a New Way to Enjoy Dessert! A box of chocolates has always been a good gift, especially for chocolate lovers. Although delicious, it can sometimes seem unoriginal to give this for birthdays or holidays such as Valentine’s Day or Mother’s Day – until now. Koo-ki Sushi has revolutionized chocolate desserts with something truly unique! Koo-Ki Sushi crafts sushi-shaped chocolate pieces made of the finest chocolate, delectable flavorings, and crisp rice cookies instead of raw fish, vinegar, and rice. Each Koo-Ki Sushi piece is molded, filled, and shaped by hand; even the little “roe” gummi eggs are meticulously created one by one. These one-of-a-kind pieces come carefully arranged in an array of imported Japanese obento (lunch) boxes, washi paper boxes, and trays. How Did Koo-Ki Sushi Originate? | In 1995, Karen “Suedy” Sasaki and her sister Janice officially launched the Koo-Ki Sushi business after Karen came up with the idea to create sushi-shaped desserts one year earlier. After taking several classes, researching, and experimenting, the sisters finally created their own unique recipes & techniques that make Koo-Ki Sushi the success it is today. | | Suedy’s Koo-Ki Sushi for You or As a Gift! “I found these chocolates to be unique, creative, and delicious!” – Anita, DivaVillage.com Editor We found it hard not to enjoy Suedy’s Koo-Ki Sushi confections which come in exotic flavors like green tea, piña colada, lemon and caramel.

Although they are perfect for swirling into a rich cup of coffee or hot cocoa, we found them so delicious that we ate them before the coffee finished brewing!
|  | Choco-Neko Suedy’s Koo-Ki Sushi also features traditional, hand-decorated Lucky Cats that aren’t made of wood, ivory, or porcelain, but creamy, solid Belgian Chocolate! Tri Color Choco-Neko™, considered the symbol of good luck, is made of creamy white chocolate and elaborately hand decorated with touches of milk chocolate and edible gold luster. "The packaging was so cute, i didn't want to eat it at first! I was also wondering whether it would taste plastic, but when I actually tried it, I was pleasantly surprised that it made for a tasty, satisfying treat." - Kim, DivaVillage.com Editor |  | Classic Containers These traditional, reusable Japanese boxes and serving tubs are the perfect quality gift!
