I tried FamilyMart's sweet "Matcha Pound Cake". A dish that not only looks bright green but also has a strong flavor.

Matcha pound cake

Original Kyoto-produced Uji matcha "Hosai" aged matcha and stone milled matcha are used, supervised by Mr. Ujihide Morita, the owner of the Morita Garden. When you open the dark green package, you will see a voluminous cake.


When you insert a knife, it feels fluffy and then has a heavy weight. When you pick it up, it looks like it's delicious. When you take a bite, you will be awakened by the moist texture and the vivid scent of matcha.


The sweetness is deep and the subtle bitterness and richness help, and even though it is a Western confectionery, it has the impression of a Japanese confectionery. If you eat one whole meal during snack time, you will be quite full, so it is recommended to cut it and share it with someone. The drink is Japanese tea. It goes well with iced tea with floating ice.


Matcha pound cake has a calorie of 200 kcal. The selling price is 170 yen (tax included).
