This sushi tastes like canDY!

I posted these backwards, I was behind on my blogging and I inadvertently reversed the pictures.  There are some cool ones.  All of the sushi was not fish or rice or anything you would think would be sushi.  It was all made with sugar, coconut, almond paste and some other crazy ingredients.  All made by our badass pastry team.  Pretty fun looking stuff.  We also had the most annoying waffle machines ever made... We don't normally hand make huge amounts of waffles for a party but it was special request so we  did it.  Best part was the timers on the waffle machines couldn't be shut off so there was a consistent beeping noise in the kitchen.   My least favorite cooking method is frying, not only because it is extremely unhealthy, but it is a pain to clean up and you end up feeling like you just rolled in a vat of grease at the end.   I had to fry 800 pieces of french toast, not the worst, but it was  rather unenjoyable.
