Tips

  1. Choose high-quality matcha: Use ceremonial or culinary-grade matcha for a vibrant green color and rich flavor. Lower-quality matcha can taste bitter and dull the cake’s color.
  2. Sift the matcha: Matcha powder tends to clump, so make sure to sift it well before adding it to your batter to ensure an even distribution without green specks.
  3. Whip the cream properly: For the filling, use heavy whipping cream and beat it until it forms stiff peaks. You can add a little matcha powder and sugar to flavor the cream. Make sure the cream is cold when whipping to achieve a light, airy texture.
  4. Cool the cake completely: Before assembling, make sure the cake layers are completely cool. Warm cake can melt the whipped cream, making the layers slip or sag.
