A collection of Japanese sweet treats that are designed to be enjoyed often, not saved for special occasions.

Japanese Baking shares approachable recipes for Japanese bakes and drinks, which can all be prepared at home.

All the recipes are influenced by the Japanese approach to sweetness and texture – one that feels refined without being complicated and satisfying without being heavy. From strawberry shortcake and matcha crêpe cake, to hojicha crème brûlée and black sesame cheesecake, discover how to make incredible cakes, bakes and desserts.

You will also learn how tea plays a crucial part of the experience of eating sweet delights in Japan. There is a remarkable diversity of tea in Japan, and Japanese Baking offers tea pairing suggestions for each recipe so that you can learn how tea can add to the eating experience. Also included are a selection of tea-based drink recipes, including matcha hot chocolate and genmaicha latte.

Full of beautiful images, Japanese Baking encourages you to bring a little everyday ceremony into your own baking.

About Katsute100

Katsute100 is a Japanese tea and dessert café with locations in London and Edinburgh. Founded in 2016, it focuses on sharing the depth and diversity of Japanese tea culture through carefully sourced teas, seasonal cakes and everyday tea experiences.

The name ‘katsute’ loosely evokes nostalgia and moments in time, reflecting the café’s philosophy of creating space for quiet enjoyment – small, thoughtful pauses in the day centred around tea and something sweet.

Working closely with tea producers and artisan suppliers in Japan, Katsute100 introduces a wider audience to Japanese tea through desserts, drinks and tea tastings inspired by both traditional and contemporary tea culture.
