Step-by-Step Instructions for Matcha Strawberry Cake
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare four 6-inch cake pans by lining the bottoms with parchment paper and lightly greasing the sides.
- In a clean mixing bowl, beat the egg whites on medium speed until foamy. Gradually add lemon juice and granulated sugar, beating until stiff peaks form.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, milk, sunflower oil, and vanilla extract. Sift in the cake flour and matcha powder, then gently fold to combine.
- Divide the batter evenly among prepared cake pans and bake for 15-20 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool for 15 minutes in pans.
- In a large bowl, beat the cold whipping cream with powdered sugar and additional matcha until medium-stiff peaks form.
- Once cakes are cool, layer them on a serving platter with whipped cream and mashed strawberries between layers.
- Chill in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes before serving.

Notes
Use culinary-grade matcha for best flavor and vibrant color. Be cautious not to overmix the batter after adding meringue.
