Ingredients

  • Matcha green tea
  • Red bean paste
  • Yuzu
  • Edible flowers
  • Edible gold leaf

Description

An innovative dessert approach starts with a luscious matcha green tea cake layered with sweet red bean paste and topped with a delicate yuzu-infused cream. Adorned with vibrant edible flowers and a sprinkle of edible gold leaf, the dessert appears like a work of art. A drizzle of tangy passion fruit sauce adds a tropical twist, while crunchy toasted sesame seeds provide a contrasting texture. The final touch is a small pile of matcha dust, playfully sprinkled around the plate, showcasing the essence of the dessert.

Tips

When it comes to ingredient substitution, you can easily customize this dessert to suit your preferences. If you're not a fan of matcha, you can use cocoa or white chocolate powder instead. For the red bean paste, you can replace it with other fruit preserves like strawberry or mango. If yuzu is hard to find, lemon or lime zest can provide a similar citrusy flavor. Lastly, feel free to experiment with different edible flowers and toppings to make the dessert truly your own.
