We promise that such a delicacy will improve everyone’s mood, and the addition of matcha will boost energy and positively set the tone for the rest of the day.

Matcha Cupcakes – batter preparation:

In one bowl, combine the dry ingredients – flour, sugar, baking powder, and add a pinch of salt. In another bowl, combine the wet ingredients – milk, oil, egg, and vanilla extract. Add the wet mixture to the dry one and mix thoroughly with a mixer or whisk to ensure no lumps remain. Finally, add water.

Pour the batter into cupcake molds, filling them roughly halfway to prevent overflow. Bake in a preheated oven at 150 degrees Celsius. Depending on the size of the molds, bake the cupcakes for 8 to 15 minutes. Larger molds may require more baking time.

Matcha Cupcakes – cream preparation:

While the cupcakes are in the oven it’s time to prepare the cream. Place softened butter and powdered sugar in a bowl and use a mixer to beat them until fluffy. Add mascarpone, vanilla extract, and matcha, then beat until you achieve a smooth, flawless consistency.

Matcha Cupcakes – decorating:

After removing the cupcakes from the oven, let them cool before starting the decorating process. The cream is best applied on top of the cupcakes using a pastry bag. You can use a professional bag or a homemade one made simply of baking paper. Finish the cupcakes by sprinkling matcha on top or decorating them with freeze-dried fruits.

Enjoy! Itadakimasu!
