Matcha & Kinako Warabimochi

I remember trying my first ever warabimochi in Hong Kong, and the nutty and refreshing flavour of it made me want it more. It looks simple, but it is an expensive Japanese sweet.

Ombré Hojicha & Matcha Mille Crepe Cake

It has been nearly half a year since my last venture into making a mille crepe cake, and this time, I’m excited to share my recipe for an Ombré Hojicha & Matcha Mille Crepe Cake. After numerous attempts and some trial and error with my Purple Yam Mille Crepe Cake, I finally mastered the technique. This cake features a beautiful triple-layer design, incorporating hojicha, matcha, and genmaicha crepes. To enhance the flavor, I used hojicha and matcha whipped cream between the layers, adding a rich, aromatic taste to each bite.
