Kracie Popin' Cookin' Sushi Making Kit

The best popin cookin because the “caviar” is like a science experiment to make. Taste yummy too.

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.

With most products, I've often been left a little disappointed that the end result didn't look like the pretty picture on the box. The great thing about these kits is that you end up with basically the exact thing! Used with kids aged 6 and 8. While the younger needed more guidance, the older one could handle the kit with minimal adult help with instruction. As long as you stick to the SPECIFIC measurements (i.e. fill to line), you get a great result.One other thing I LOVE about these kits is that in MANY countries, the entire packaging is recyclable. Also, every part of the package is used, so there is no waste. It's so cleverly packaged and so much fun.The process of making the "drop" type candy was really cool! Other candy "science" kits charge $30 to see the same thing, but you can buy a bulk package of Kracie kitchen kits for a few dollars each. Very good value and kids can stay busy for an hour.The flavor was definitely a grape type, but not the same "grape" in American products. Not too overpowering of a taste for the kids, but as an adult, I find the entire kit too sweet to eat more than one piece.

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 is one of the more intricate Kracie candy kits, and while it's definitely fun to make, not so much to eat. Taste wise I liked the "fish eggs", which had a very slight sweet taste and a fun texture, and the "seaweed" which tasted almost like Spree and had the texture of Laffy-taffy. However, the "rice" is pretty disgusting, tasting like stale generic pink bubblegum and having a spongy and somewhat gritty texture. The "egg" and "salmon" didn't taste horrible, but I couldn't stand the texture of those which were like were like watered down jelly.Kracie is never about the taste per-say, and it was definitely an enjoyable time to make the sushi, but the taste does knock this down a few stars since it feels like such a waste to throw most of it away in the end.

I thought this was an overall very nice kit. I am extremely pleased with the excellent customer service, which was very clear and informative on what do about a delivery problem I stumbled on. I was emailed twice, both very detailed and gave me all my answers. As for the kit itself, it is wonderful. My dad didn't really like it, but me and my mom did! We love grape, so this was good for us. The rice was good, tasted like a mix of cotton candy and grape. The fish part was like grape gummy, yum! The fish egg candies tastes like grape, too. The soy sauce was sweet and tasted like grape soda. All flavors combined nicely and had a light, nice mild flavor. I had a blast making this kit and have already ordered the Ramen kit to do next! I love Kracie Popin' Cookin! I would not hesitate at all to say that I definitely recommend this product to anyone! Very cute and tasty candy, and so much fun to make!!

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.
