Kappa Sushi Introduces New Autumn Flavors
Kappa Sushi, the beloved sushi chain in Japan, is set to launch its latest sweet sensation, the
Kappa's Shari Donuts Caramel Cinnamon. Starting September 3, 2026, this seasonal treat is a delicious fusion of textures and flavors that sushi lovers and dessert enthusiasts alike will savor.
The Shari Donuts, which have already sold around
900,000 units, transform the concept of traditional sushi 'shari' (rice) into an innovative dessert. The
Caramel Cinnamon variant draws upon the warmth of autumn with its enticing caramel sweetness and fragrant cinnamon, carefully crafted to reflect the seasonal celebration of flavors.
These donuts boast a unique texture that is soft and chewy, thanks to being made from domestically sourced rice. Each donut is fried on-site, ensuring that patrons receive a fresh and warm experience every time. When you take your first bite, the aroma of caramel wafts pleasantly, giving a gentle sweetness that is complemented by the subtle yet distinctive flavor of cinnamon.
As you enjoy the donut, you’ll find it reminiscent of a freshly baked cinnamon roll, making it an ideal addition to your autumn café moments. For those who prefer to share, Kappa Sushi offers the
2-piece option for dining in and a
5-piece carry-out set for those cozy evenings at home or gatherings with friends.
More than just a sweet treat, these donuts create a heartwarming experience that pairs beautifully with conversations shared over tea or coffee. Kappa Sushi aims to make meal times more enjoyable and fascinating, introducing a variety of initiatives to bring excitement into customers' daily routines.

Kappa Sushi emphasizes the quality of its ingredients, using 100% domestically sourced rice, particularly its favorite variety, Hae-nuki. The company deeply values the significance of rice as an essential component of Japanese food culture. From this commitment arose the
Shari Donuts, a unique dessert where the dough retains the character of sushi rice, delivering both nostalgia and excitement.
Since their launch in September 2025, the Shari Donuts have surprised many with the delight of having donuts made with traditional sushi rice. This innovation has made them a favorite not just as after-meal desserts but also as an enjoyable snack to go.
