What’s the Hype About this Matcha Ice Cream? #shorts #icecream

This gorgeous green dessert’s all over the food lovers’ side of Instagram and TikTok. Combines the idea of the French chestnut dessert mont blanc with the earthy, grassy character of Japan’s matcha green tea. It begins with what looks like soft-serve ice cream in a waffle cone, but turns out to be a multilayer confection with lemon jam, matcha cake, and red bean paste among other layers, topped with mascarpone cream. And then you get the kicker: matcha-infused Japanese chestnut paste in a vivid pine-green hue, which they pipe on top of the ice cream with a special tool with multiple narrow-diameter holes. Check out the Matcha Mont Blanc from Tokyo dessert shop Chacha Koubou Futatsume.
