Whipped Cream & Matcha Dreams: How to Serve Green Tea Pound Cake Like a Pro
There is an art to stillness—and a joy in the small, beautiful things. A slice of Wild Orchard organic matcha green tea pound cake is more than dessert. It is a pause. A soft exhale. A quiet joy shared in good company or savored alone with a cup of something warm.
Our organic Matcha, with its earthy grace and gentle energy, infuses this classic cake with depth and color—mossy green, softly sweet, delicately bitter. Paired with whipped cream and a few mindful touches, it becomes a tea-time offering worthy of ritual.
The Matcha Green Tea Pound Cake
Simple. Humble. Deeply satisfying.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons matcha powder
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract (for the cream)
- 2–3 tablespoons milk (as needed for consistency)
Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a loaf pan and line it with parchment paper.
- Cream the Butter and Sugar until light and airy.
- Add the Eggs one at a time. Breathe between each. Let the mixture stay smooth.
- Sift Together Flour, Wild Orchard Organic Matcha, Baking Powder, and Salt—a soft snowfall of green.
- Combine Wet and Dry gently, folding until just blended. Add milk if needed. The batter should pour like slow honey.
- Bake for 55–65 minutes. A toothpick should come out clean, with just a crumb.
- Cool Completely. This is where patience becomes flavor.
Serving Like a Pro: The Art of Assembly
1. Whipped Cream, Light as Cloud. Whip heavy cream with a touch of vanilla and a whisper of sugar. Dollop generously or pipe with grace.
2. Garnish with Intention. A dusting of Wild Orchard organic matcha powder, like morning mist. A few edible flowers or fresh mint leaves. Slices of fresh berries or preserved yuzu peel.
3. Pair with Peace. Serve with one of our Award Winning Wild Orchard tea bags or loose leaves teas, or a prepare a light matcha latte. Let the colors speak to one another. Let the flavors sit in silence.
The Final Moment
There is no rush.
Sit down.
Breathe in the green.
Take the bite slowly.
Let it melt.
This is not just dessert.
It is ceremony.
It is dream.
