Strawberry Shortcake Cheesecake Dessert Sushi Rolls 🍰

Step 2: Prepare the Cake Base

Option 1:
If using pound cake or sponge cake, slice into thin, flat layers (about ½ inch thick). Lay them side by side on parchment and press slightly to flatten and seal the edges together into a rectangular sheet.

Option 2 (EASIEST):
Lay out 4 slices of crustless white sandwich bread slightly overlapping. Use a rolling pin to flatten them into a thin rectangle.

Step 3: Assemble the Roll

  1. Spread a layer of cheesecake filling evenly over the cake/bread base.
  2. Sprinkle chopped strawberries all over. Add a swirl of jam if using.
  3. Carefully roll from one end using the parchment paper to help, like you’re rolling a sushi roll.
  4. Wrap the roll tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to set.

Step 4: Coating Time

  1. Once chilled, unwrap and brush the outside lightly with more cream cheese filling or melted white chocolate.
  2. Roll the entire log in crushed golden Oreos or vanilla wafer crumbs, mixed with strawberry powder or sprinkles for color.

Step 5: Slice & Serve

  1. Use a sharp knife to slice into 1-inch thick sushi-style pieces.
  2. Garnish with more whipped cream, strawberry drizzle, or even tiny strawberry “wasabi” on the side for fun 😄

💡 Tips & Extras

  • Want it extra fancy? Drizzle with melted white chocolate and top each piece with a strawberry slice.
  • Feeling fun? Serve with chopsticks!
  • You can freeze the roll slightly for clean slicing and a firmer texture.

This is playful, pretty, and absolutely delicious. Kids love it. Adults are wowed. It’s giving “you spent hours” vibes, but it’s actually quick and easy. Would you like a video script, a reel caption, or a blog version of this next? 🍓💖
