Tenkei sweets with mochi and anko with Matcha, 6 pcs. 180g

Discover a unique fusion of traditional Japanese flavors and delicate confectionery craftsmanship. These Tenkei mochi cakes with matcha filling in castella sponge are soft Japanese pastries inspired by the famous castella sponge cake, filled with aromatic matcha cream and delicate mochi. This is an elegant, gently sweet snack that perfectly reflects the character of modern Japanese sweets inspired by the classic world of wagashi.

From the very first bite, you’ll notice an exceptionally soft and fluffy castella texture, known in Japan for its slightly moist structure and gentle sweetness. Inside, there is a creamy matcha green tea filling and soft mochi, adding a characteristic, lightly chewy texture. Together, they create a harmonious balance of creaminess, subtle tea bitterness, and delicate sponge aroma.

What is castella?
Castella is a traditional Japanese sponge cake originating from Nagasaki, inspired by Portuguese baked goods brought centuries ago. In Japan, it developed its own identity—moister, softer, and exceptionally airy. Thanks to its light structure, it pairs perfectly with refined additions such as matcha and mochi.

Why you should try it:

• authentic matcha flavor from Japan
• soft mochi hidden inside the filling
• delicate and fluffy castella sponge
• balanced sweetness without being overly sugary
• perfect with tea, coffee, or hojicha
• great for both beginners and fans of Japanese sweets

How does it taste?
It can be described as a combination of:

• premium fluffy sponge cake
• creamy matcha dessert
• gentle green tea with a slightly vegetal aroma
• soft mochi resembling subtly chewy rice dough

This is a more elegant and refined dessert than classic European cookies—lighter, creamier, and full of subtle Japanese flavor notes.

Perfect for:

• a gift for Japan lovers
• Japanese sweets tasting
• afternoon tea
• anime night or Japanese snack box
• a relaxing moment in a Japanese tea house style
