Matcha Whipped Cream Frosting

This whipped cream frosting can be used on cakes, muffins, cupcakes, strawberries... anything you'd add whipped cream to! This recipe tastes exactly like a matcha latte, so do what you will with that information. Free will exists for a reason.

Ingredients + Materials:

  • 2 tablespoons of sweetened/unsweetened Matcha Powder - I use Rishi Sweet Matcha

  • 3 tablespoons of powdered sugar or confectioner's sugar

  • 1 cup of heavy whipping cream (whole or plant milk works, DO NOT use almond - it's too thin)

  • 1 teaspoon authentic vanilla extract (if you have bean paste, use a little less or more, your choice)

  • Hand mixer

  • Stainless Steel bowl so your whipping cream is nice & cold

  • Piping bag

  • Tupperware for storage

Mix it Up:

Let's make this yummy Matcha Whipped Cream Frosting!

First, make sure you have a stainless steel mixing bowl (or a regular bowl works if you have that) with fresh out-the-fridge whipping cream. Pour in the 1 c. heavy whipping cream, 3 tbsp. powdered sugar, 1 tsp. vanilla extract, and 3 tbsp. matcha powder. Blend with mixer on MEDIUM-HIGH for 1 minute.


How to thicken whipped cream frosting: After a minute, the mixture should blend and it will start to turn into a fluffy cloud. With this delicious mixture, taste test - adding in sugar to taste - and put in a piping bag.

Done! Pipe on chocolate cupcakes (like the one I did), cakes, cookie sandwiches, or onto your matcha drink for a little razzle-dazzle.



Helpful Hints:

  • Really cold heavy whipping cream

  • If using plant milk, make sure it's a fatty nut that you are using!

  • Refrigerate any leftover matcha whipping cream and use within 3 days.
