About Kappa Sushi’s Shari Sweets

At Kappa Sushi, they pride themselves on having a strong connection to rice, the fundamental ingredient that supports the brand. They use 100% domestically sourced rice, primarily Hayanuki, honoring the Japanese belief that a grain of rice has the spirits of seven deities within it.

The Shari Donuts are a manifestation of Kappa Sushi's commitment to exploring new possibilities with rice. These treats are designed to be easily enjoyed in a single bite, while still allowing the texture of the rice grains to shine through. Since their launch in September 2025, these donuts have gained immense popularity for their unique texture coupled with the dedication to in-house preparation and frying.

Kappa Sushi continues to innovate with their Shari donut range, contributing to the delightful experiences that make every visit memorable.
