Press Coverage

Decorations: Delicate 'cherry blossom' pink sea-salted candied popcorn and pink macarons.

Frosting: Silky Matcha green tea Swiss meringue buttercream, balancing the bold chocolate flavour with the subtle, earthy notes of matcha. The cake is completed with a glossy chocolate drip.

From the Chef

I haven't been to Japan yet. My husband has visited (without me!) and sent me stunning photos of everything I was missing out on—the sushi, the vending machines, the pastries and desserts, and the cherry blossoms. I tried to live vicariously through him, and with inspiration from one of my favourite pastry chefs, Sadaharu Aoki in Paris, I created the Matcha Sakura Cake.

This cake brings a feeling of refined elegance, calm, and reflection, much like sitting under a cherry blossom tree with a warm cup of matcha green tea. It’s peaceful, delicate, and full of subtle beauty.

What makes this cake special is the blend of earthy matcha with rich Valrhona Belgian chocolate sponges and the tart sweetness of raspberry macarons. It’s not just a cake—it’s an experience that transports you to a serene Japanese garden with every bite, even if you can't physically get there anytime soon, like me.

Perfect for tea lovers, Japanophiles, or anyone who enjoys delicate flavours and refined aesthetics. It’s ideal for birthdays, afternoon tea parties, or as a thoughtful gift.

If you’re looking for a cake that’s a little more elegant and understated, you can't go wrong with this cake.
