I saw this on MSNBC this morning. Cute:

Clare Crespo of Baton Rouge, Louisiana from The Twinkies Cookbook:
An Inventive and Unexpected Recipe Collection from Hostess
Serves 6

“I often use Hostess products in my crazy food recipes. They’re a great art supply. I love sushi and thought it would be fun to have sushi for dessert. It’s nice to serve Twinkie Sushi at a dinner party on a Japanese tray or bento box with chopsticks. Guests will laugh while they enjoy a refreshing fruity dessert at the same time.”

INGREDIENTS


• 4 pieces green fruit leather, sliced into 1-inch strips
• 6 Twinkies, cut into 1-inch pieces
• Assorted dried fruits, cut into small pieces
• Assorted chewy fruity candies
• 4 to 6 pieces of dried mango, cut into strips


DIRECTIONS
One at a time, wrap the fruit leather pieces around the Twinkie pieces. Place the wrapped Twinkies upright on a serving tray or in a bento box.
Place the dried fruits and candies into the crème filling. Garnish the tray with strips of dried mango to resemble pickled ginger.

Serve with chopsticks if you wish.
