About This Cake

This is a cake built for people who appreciate a considered flavour. Tender gluten-friendly vanilla almond sponge is layered with silky vanilla custard and a bright passionfruit patisserie filling — the tang of the passionfruit cutting through the creamy custard beautifully. The whole cake is finished in our signature buttercream flavoured with matcha, giving it a gentle, earthy fragrance and that unmistakable soft green hue. A dusting of matcha and delicate piping complete it. Refined, balanced, and quietly impressive.
