made the cake for mom's birthday. turns out the original recipe is pretty tiny. so in the end i made another layer of cake. next time, i'm gonna double the recipe, but reduce the sugar coz it's too damned sweet.
the red bean filling is also too sweet >.< and i'd already reduced the sugar amount. gonna cut of half of the sugar.
it's not bad for my first attempt ^^ but i still think
Sun Moulin's
Japanese Green Tea Cake is the best.

| My first Japanese Green Tea Cake with Red Bean Filling. |
It didn't look this nice before it was cut. Mom even called it "Fatt Mou Cake" (mouldy cake). Someone suggested to put the strawberries on top coz we happen to have some. I need to work on my frosting skills. it really looked ugly coz i didn't have enough whipped cream. all went into the red bean layer.

gonna cook it longer next time coz it wasn't soft enough. not bad...just too sweet for our taste.
