oishi! macha almond cake!

i've been dreaming of the yummy macha / greentea cakes ever since i saw the delicious slices @ breadtalk... they are exhorbitant! an extremely small piece for rm5.50. so i decided to bake them myself. and bake it i did, today.
it turned out ok. with a little mishaps after i baked the first layer. i was suppose to let it rest for 30mins before turning it out from the pan but i wanted to use the pan for the next layer. so i turned it over to another baking pan... and the middle part of the top was stuck ... luckily i can cover it up with the yummy creamcheese icing! .
since swee's bday is coming up, so i decorated half of the cake nicely with almonds sandwiched in between the layers and more covering the whole cake. swee loves almonds, greentea is healthy and the macha creamcheese icing is yummy! perfect gift . hope she is not reading this as i wanna give her a surprise tomorrow!
