Matcha Genoise Cake
This light and fluffy matcha genoise cake is filled with a whipped white chocolate filling and topped with a matcha white chocolate ganache.
It’s been a long hectic week you guys. I don’t think I’ve been this mentally exhausted in YEARS!!! Spending an entire week in an isolated location with 80 other scientists has not only been enriching but dude very tiresome. But I am very grateful for the experience to have learned so much from great minds and walked away realizing how much I love doing research and how far I have to go. Despite the long days and nights, I was very happy to meet a lot of people I have admired for years and got to share my research with a wider audience than my university.
But on an even brighter side, I am leaving this morning and the hubster will be meeting me in Boston so we can spend the weekend exploring the city with one of my girlfriends who lives here! Our conference was located 15 miles outside of Boston and can you believe I’ve been here an entire week and have not even been out and about yet? Yeah, was that crazy.
Enough talk about travels. That’s not why you are here. Cake!!
I am sharing the recipe for this matcha genoise cake today over at The Cooking Actress. If you have not met Kayle, the bombshell foodie over at The Cooking Actress, you are going to love her. She is a total sweetheart and an incredible cook and baker. She just moved her life from NYC where she lived for 5 years and is settling in at home in Ohio now. I am over there today helping out as she gets comfortable at home. Head over there now to not only check out her blog but get the recipe for this green tea infused fluffy genoise cake.
I hope you all have a great weekend! Don’t forget to head over to The Cooking Actress for the recipe. Recipe: https://www.cookingactress.
Glad you had a blast! The feeling of awe after a Gordon is nice, to me it provides that extra energy and focus to work once it’s over. The last one I went to (last year) ended up with us submitting an article to a huge journal, and it was accepted just a couple of weeks ago. If we had not met the editor there and talked to her, we would probably not have submitted to that journal, thinking our subject would not have much chance in that venue.
ok, I digress… this cake is amazing, I love matcha, color and taste – if I was not such a cake baking wimp, I would go for it. But genoise in particular caused me incredible grievance in the past. I am very afraid of it. Very afraid.
Dude! I am totally digging this cake. It looks amazing! I love the color differentiation, too. All around an A+ job. Speaking of A+, I bet you rocked it at your super fancy scientist meeting. (That’s what I call all of my wife’s work…super fancy scientist stuff!)
I’ve never made anything with matcha green tea powder but this cake looks amazing! Thanks for sharing on Totally Talented Tuesday.
I’m obsessed with matcha! I want this to be my birthday cake!! It looks incredible and I love your blog! I admire how you are able to manage your time….it something I’m still trying to figure out.
