Hey! Welcome to CC!
I do not know if you are aware, but green tea is also called matcha.
I found a matcha frosting recipe for you, abstracted off the website
www.matchasource.com :
Matcha Buttercream Frosting
1 stick butter, room temperature
2 tablespoons half and half or light cream
1 tablespoon matcha powder
3 cups powdered sugar, sifted
1. Mix matcha in with the light cream to make a paste.
2. Beat butter briefly, scrape bowl.
3. Add the sifted powdered sugar and matcha paste. Beat until smooth.
Assemble
Smooth a thin layer of buttercream over the cupcakes and top with a decoration.
Note: The cute, pink royal icing flowers were bought at a local cake supply store.
Please let me know if you like it.

Where can I find this matcha? I have never heard of it.

Matcha is nothing more than finely ground green tea.
It can easily be found online, or in any Asian grocery store.

I buy Matcha powder at a grocery store in China Town. I have never made a matcha frosting, i usually add it to my white cake batter. Recently I used Matcha au lait mix instead of the matcha powder because its cheaper.
the matcha powder is just ground tea but the matcha au lait comes in a box that has little pouches and it has some milk powder and sugar. it gives a less bitter taste.
if you like matcha lattes you could just add hot water to the mix and enjoy.
personally I hate the matcha taste but it's one of my best selling cakes, it goes really well with coconut.
Not all green tea is called matcha.
Matcha is a Japanese green tea powder, and there are different brands with different qualities and nuances in flavor. The tea bushes are covered so the tea for matcha is shade-grown.
I do grean tea cuppies with pomegranate-cream cheese frosting. I make matcha latte (fron scratch), green tea cheesecake, etc.
It's very versatile.
Would you share your recipes for I do grean tea cuppies with pomegranate-cream cheese frosting. I make matcha latte (fron scratch), green tea cheesecake, etc. ?
