Easy Sweets Menu (21–30)
stick pine
How about serving sweet, fruit-filled treats at your school festival food stall? This time, we’re introducing a no-cook, street-stall-style pineapple-on-a-stick.
All you need are Taiwanese pineapples, bamboo skewers, and plastic wrap.
Regular pineapples tend to be quite tart, with a hard, inedible core, but Taiwanese pineapples are sweet all the way through—even the core is edible.
Preparation is super easy: cut off the top and bottom with a knife, slice the fruit into eight wedges, remove the peel, and skewer each piece.
Wrap and chill them in the fridge, and you’ll have refreshingly cold, street-stall-style pineapple sticks ready to go.
You can prep them in advance, making setup simple and keeping things hygienic.
cotton candy
Cotton candy brings back childhood memories and is also popular as a photogenic treat.
Many people surely looked forward to having their parents buy it for them at festival stalls and night markets when they were kids.
It’s big and fluffy, but the moment you put it in your mouth it melts away—so even if you wonder whether you can finish something that large, it disappears in no time.
Wrapping it around the chopstick takes some technique, so everyone needs to practice together before opening a stall.
Lately, cotton candy made with colorful sugar crystals has been popular, and it’s sure to be a hit for photos.
almond tofu
Almond tofu is so delicious that there are even dedicated fans—not just as a Chinese-restaurant dessert.
There are several types: the popular “almond tofu mix” that you heat and combine with milk, and the kind set with agar and soaked in syrup, among others.
If you’re serving it at a booth where you can’t use heat, how about using the syrup-soaked kind, the ones sold in paper or plastic packs, or the big frozen bags you can thaw and portion out? Transfer it into paper cups, and add canned fruits like cherries or mandarin oranges for an authentic touch!
Burrito made with cotton candyNEW!

Song of a Shy High School Girl Who Admires the Extroverted JK – Onriame
Burritos—dishes where thin wheat-flour wraps are rolled around meat and vegetables! They’re tasty and easy to eat, so they’re great for food stalls, too.
Here we’re introducing a burrito-style sweet that uses cotton candy.
Flatten the cotton candy on a sheet of parchment paper to make a “wrap,” then just add ice cream, marshmallows, dried fruit, and mixed chocolates, and roll it up! If you cut it in half to serve, the colorful cross-section looks great in photos, and you can eat it with a spoon as well.
It’s a perfect menu item for summer!
Bite-sized sweet potatoNEW!

♬ A Small Restaurant in the Forest – Aoi Teshima
A popular sweet for all ages! Here’s an easy way to make sweet potato bites.
First, peel the sweet potatoes, slice them into rounds, and soak them in water for 5 minutes.
After 5 minutes, drain and microwave for 10 minutes.
Mash the sweet potatoes, mix in unsalted butter, honey, and soy milk, shape the mixture, brush with egg yolk, and top with black sesame seeds, then place in a toaster oven.
Bake for 10 minutes and they’re ready! These sweet potato bites are delicious even when cooled, so you can make them ahead and serve later.
Since they’re bite-sized, they’re easy for children and the elderly to eat.
However, because they contain honey, do not serve them to children under 1 year old.
Simple French ToastNEW!
@yuuun.s2 No stove needed! Extra fluffy and creamy French toast that’s super easy and insanely delicious 🔥
Original song – ➳♡ Yun – ➳♡ Yun
Let me show you how to make French toast in the microwave without using a stove.
Mix milk and eggs in a heatproof container.
Add pieces of sliced bread and let them soak, then microwave at 600W for 3 minutes.
Finish with your favorite toppings like honey, and it’s ready! If you want a browned surface, a kitchen torch works well.
With simple ingredients and just a microwave, it’s a safe, easy recipe even for beginners.
If you’re undecided about a food stall menu, give this a try for inspiration!
tofu doughnutNEW!
@rako_yarikuri No tofu taste♡
Spitz “Cherry” REMAKE feat. BBY NABE – MATT CAB
When you think of donuts, you probably imagine it’s a hassle—mixing and resting the dough, cutting out shapes, then deep-frying.
But with this idea, no cutters needed! You don’t even use oil! Just put three ingredients—pancake mix, silken tofu, and soy milk—into a resealable bag and mix.
Once combined, snip off one corner of the bag and, like piping whipped cream, draw circles onto a sheet of parchment paper.
Then bake at 180°C (356°F) for 15 minutes, and you’re done! It’s an easy, healthy, and delicious menu item that’s perfect for food stalls.
