Joyuna's Etsy Favorites: Sushi bar

I'm not gonna lie: I love sushi! The combination of the different flavors, the attractive arrangement of the pieces, the exotic ingredients. Sushi rolls have become almost as popular as cupcakes for "cute anthropomorphic food items", but I don't mind because I love it. Here's some cool, cute, spicy sushi stuff from Etsy's best.

One of the best and cleverest food-shaped-soap-shops I've seen has been DirtyAssSoaps. Besides their awesome name, they make some realistic, fun, and funny soaps that look good enough to eat. They have a wide variety of sushi soaps, enough for a whole meal. Plus other treats for dessert!

For a more symbolic take on the sushi-shaped-soap, I found this bar by Zozca. Zozca created this amazing soap inspired by a cocktail paired with sushi - The fragrance comes from a mix of essential oils and elderflowers infused in the coconut oil. A totally unique scent, with a totally unique look!

All that sushi, of course, is not complete without the mandatory condiments of wasabi (aka Japanese Horseradish) and pickled ginger. I adore pickled ginger, I snack on it with or without sushi. Wasabi I usually pass on. But I couldn't pass on this little guy... How cute is it?!

Etsy seller Cornstarch makes all sorts of stuffed sushi dolls, but I think I love the wasabi and ginger plushies best. Her tagline is "Sushi you can hug". Too cute!

Let me tell you I had a lot of fun putting this list together... Who can resist it? Delicious AND cute!

  4. Um...I still maintain that it is VERY unfair of soap makers to create enticing food items in soap! No fair!! Cute post:)
