Absolutely loved this tiramisu matcha! There was a good size piece of tiramisu on top and it was light and fluffy. The matcha flavor was not too sweet and everything went together so nicely! I'll definitely get this again.
absolutely love matcha cafe maiko! i’ve come here once before to try their banana pudding matcha latte, which was 10/10. come to my surprise they have another option from the banana pudding series, the banana pudding soft serve! This dessert was the perfect summer sweet treat and I cannot recommend it enough to all obsessed with banana flavored desserts (not to mention they have an endless menu of different treats to try). Will be making this my regular spot for sweet treats!
