The cupcakes we just put in liners and baked at 350 degrees for 15 mins and they were perfectly done. I must say the cake is rather dense; even though I am usually fine with dense cake, I thought it did not pair well with a fluffy icing. However, both the icing and the cake tasted very good and the flavors went together very well. It was more of a texture and weight I did not appreciate. The vanilla bean did not soak into the cake as much as I was wanting, and I think it made me use less of the syrup because I didn’t want a layer on the cake before I put the jam down. I choose a jam that wasn’t too sweet so all of the flavors of the cake could come out. I thought that there could have been a bit more of a matcha flavor, and I do not like matcha lattes, so that was a surprising realization.

Overall, I would definitely make this again but maybe experiment a bit more and make cake changes to: make the cake less dense and the syrup maybe thicker.

I was wondering what is the size of your round cake mould when you bake the genoise sponge? 🙂

Beautiful and easy to make just not a matcha tea fan I guess. If you like matcha or green tea, you will love this cake!

I have a few concerns about Matcha. I recently tried a matcha latte at a Starbucks. It tasted fine for the first few sips but then started tasting fishy. Is that common with matcha or is there a particular brand you recommend.

I love your work!
