‘Flor’ is a Portuguese word for flower, and is pronounced in Japanese as ‘fu-ro-ru’. Widely recognised and accepted as a symbolic representation of love, passion, and beauty, the flower embodies the delicate balance of nature and beauty.
I found this place where I wanted to buy green tea cake, so I did a google online. This lovely place came in my picture.
I bought Thé Vert テベール as my friends' birthday cake. The cake has a layer of green tea sponge base, followed by the harmony of vanilla cream and fragrant green tea mousse, and finally covered by a thin layer of cold, green tea jelly. FLOR Patisserie uses Kyoto-uji matcha (green tea) powder for this particular green tea cake for its clear and pristine flavour and aroma. It is adorned with sweetened Japanese chestnuts. The size I bought is 15 cm (0.8kg) ≈ 5-6 pax for $46.00. If you purchase a whole cake, they will give you a chocolate plate to write for your message, however, there is limited of words you can put on the chocolate plate. If it exceed, you may need to top up for a bigger plate.
The cake is really nice, one of the best green tea cake I had. I dun really like the mousse as I found If I have it too much, I will feel not good, but this green tea mousse, I think I can have more. It is not that sweet and I like it overall. I will find one day to revisit with dine in to enjoy the other cakes available.
