I am a green tea enthusiast and have been reading many matcha powder (green tea powder) recipes. I have never used it in baking, so I would like to know how it tastes in cupcakes, ice creams, cakes, etc? For example, does it have a bittersweet taste when added to cupcakes?
I would also like to know if anyone has tried baking with matcha powder and how it turned out? What brand did you use?
Thanks in advance, everyone! =)

depends on the quantity, but the taste is really subtle…

Some people do not like using green tea when baking, because it can add a bitter taste. When used in moderation, however, matcha powder adds a lovely sweet flavor in its subtleness. Green tea is a great addition to any dessert, whether it is to enhance a flavor or to become the star of the dessert. It's all in the hands of the baker. Happy baking! ; )
