Matcha crepe cake
18 steps
Prep:30minCook:1h
An utterly devine and decadent japanese dessert for Matcha lovers!
I made this in a cookery class with
Suzue aoyama (www.suzueaoyama.com)
I would say this recipe could be modified to different flavours such as chocolate or strawberry (strawberry perhaps more difficult as it has too much moisture for the crème.)
