    We love a good matcha treat around this blog (ahem, there's a whole category dedicated to matcha recipes). So, I figured it was time to round up a few of my personal favorites and other delicious finds across the web. Hope you enjoy!

    Four pictures in a grid (a brown and green cake with a slice taken out, a smoothie bowl topped with cut fruit, a matcha tiramisu, and a pale green custard tart), with an overlay that says 25 Tastiest Matcha Desserts.
    Matcha and Cherry Creamsicles
    These creamsicles have creamy matcha ice cream, plus a sweet/tart cherry and rosewater half!
    They're perfect if you can't decide if you want a decadent treat or something a little more refreshing.

    These matcha popsicles with cherry rose compote are a pretty two-tone frozen treat that's more creamsicle than popsicle. #matcha #greentea #popsicles #cherry
    Matcha Marshmallows
    These homemade matcha marshmallows are soft and tender, and they're flavored throughout with plenty of matcha.
    They're also a small batch, so you can have a few (plain, in s'mores, on top of hot chocolate) without getting stuck with a mountain of them.
