Directions
1. To make the cake, preheat your oven at 175c. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Combine Suncore Foods® Emerald Pandan Leaf Powder, milk and blend until smooth. Strain mixture through a fine mesh sieve. Use the back of a spoon to press out the juice.
3. In a mixing bowl, combine dry ingredients. In a medium bowl mix the wet ingredients together. Fold the mixture with a spatula to incorporate.
4. Pour the batter into prepared pan. Bake for 25 mins or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let cool completely. Use a cake ring to cut out the cakes. Place cake in a cake ring, set aside.
5. In a saucepan, bring coconut milk, soy milk and sugar to a boil. Add agar-agar, Suncore Foods® Midori Jade Matcha Powder and stirring constantly, keep stirring until agar completely dissolve. Then lower the heat and whisk in cornstarch, vanilla and salt. Let simmer for 1 min. Turn off the heat and let the mixture cool for 2-3 mins. Pour mixture over the cake layer and refrigerate until it is firm enough to remove out from the pan. Enjoy!
