Two Kerr-squeezed optical beams can be combined in a beam splitter to produce non-Gaussian continuousvariable entangled states. We characterize the non-Gaussian nature of the output by calculating the third-order cumulant of quadrature variables and predict the level of entanglement that could be generated by evaluating the Duan-Simon and Reid Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen criteria. These states have the advantage over Gaussian states and non-Gaussian measurement schemes in that the well known, efficient, and proven technology of homodyne detection may be used for their characterization. A physical demonstration maintaining the important features of the model could be realized using optical fibers, beam splitters, and homodyne detection.
