I always serve this sushi cake for Hinamatsuri (Girl's Day Festival) as well as for my daughter's birthday or for home parties.
You can make this out of ingredients found abroad. So if you live abroad, why not try this for a potluck party?

Use cherry tomatoes, broccoli, or anything you'd like for the sushi cake decorations.
Arrange the filling with any ingredient you'd like; with toasted seaweed, salmon flakes, sweet cooked shiitake mushrooms, etc. Recipe by hannah_uk
