Of matcha cream and azuki beans surrounded by a matcha flavoured sponge, this swiss roll has got to be the BEST matcha swiss roll ever among all Iβve tried! π So far the best Iβve had in Singapore was the one from @dairyandcream but as a hardcore matchaholic, I love how the characteristic earthy note of matcha flavour is prominent not only in the cream but also in the sponge itself! ππ This was hardly the case for matcha flavoured cakes typically and I am amazed how the matcha flavour was subtle albeit distinct in the sponge itself!β¨ Not a fan of azuki beans and hence was glad that the presence in the swiss roll was just a mere oneπ
. The matcha flavoured cake is soft and fluffy, sandwiched with a generous amount of smooth, luscious matcha cream that comes with a lingering bitter undertone and a pleasant earthy, umami note! Would be great if thereβs also some matcha sauce / powder provided as well! π My personal advice would be to consume this cake around 5-10 minutes after taking it out from the refrigerator for a softer and more creamy mouthfeel π. Indeed, no regrets purchasing this cake, though the only sad thing was the much-smaller-than-expected sizeπ
