From Dessert by Deb

Ooooh is this one ever special! A little French, a little Japanese, and all sorts of delicious and sweet, Matcha Cream Puff is inspired by classic dainty choux pastry (think mini cream puffs and profiteroles) and Japanese matcha dessert cafes. One of my favourite desserts in the city is the matcha cream puff from Tsujiri. With a golden crackly domed top, it oozes sweet matcha cream filling and I wanted to recreate that in a tea blend!

Sencha green tea is dusted and blended with ceremonial matcha and mixed with maple flakes (for that crackly cream puff “texture”) and a heaping dose of shredded coconut reminiscent of cream puff filling for a sweet and creamy green tea infusion. Indulge in a matcha themed afternoon tea party with this one!

Certified organic ingredients: Green Tea, Coconut, Canadian Maple, Ceremonial Matcha

Handcrafted in Toronto, Canada.

Steeping instructions: 2 tea spoons at 200F for 4-6 mins

This was one I was looking at in my second order but ultimately decided not to buy. So, when I opened the box and this was one of the samples, I was pretty happy to get a chance to try it.

Now having tried it, I’m happy I didn’t buy it. It’s not bad but I don’t think it’s a cream puff either. I get a lot of maple and some coconut cream mixed with green tea. So it’s like maple matcha coconut cream. I am dozing off so I’m hoping the matcha will be a pick me up but other than that, this isn’t doing much for me.

Ah, that’s too bad! Did you get the Marshmallow Crispy Square too?

I did. And no worries. I find some of her blends fall flat and sort of end up with a sweet maple flavor and nothing really builds on it. Others of her blends are quite good though. At least I didn’t end up with 25 grams of this haha

This was kindly included as a free sample from Dessert by Deb. By the way, the packaging was absolutely adorable, with owl and tea stickers all over the parcel, pink paper, a hand written postcard, note paper, and coordinated gold, silver, and pink coloured tea packets.

To me, this tastes exactly like a Matcha Cream Puff so I can’t really complain. Coconut, rice, and the more buttery qualities of the matcha create a convincing cream filled pastry profile. Maple Crystals sells the dessert.

I like this a lot more than the Marshmallow Crispy Square, which while relatively tasty is also (maybe overly) coconut heavy. The coconut in the Cream Puff is a lot more balanced and complimentary. Also, Matcha Genmaicha is generally more fun than regular Genmaicha so there’s that going for it too!

I got this as a sample in my second order. Perhaps I will need to try it sooner rather than later

Hopefully this one works out for you! Results have varied slightly for me but it’s usually decent to good!
