Coffee vs. Matcha Dessert Boxes

After the Alice in Wonderland Sphyrn Marketing, this time they did the Coffee vs. Matcha box. 
Look at the beautiful dessert

Rows and rows of boxes, waiting to be picked up.

This is the Coffee Box, which has an eclair, macaron, and mochi.

Stuff that didn't fit inside the box, a cheesecake bar and a Coffee Panna Cotta.

More stuff in the Green Tea box.

Onigiri, mochi, eclair, and macaron

Green tea Panna Cotta, Barfi/Burfi Bar, and a bonus dessert of green tea coconut custard macaroons.

Mini Croissant with little Bacon Bit by SKM Pastries - a little too thick on the texture for me.  I like them light, fluffy and buttery and this was more dense than I'd like.  

Matcha Mochi from Mia's Goodies, which is always superb.  Nice and fresh, and definitely have gotten it in the past. 

Coconut Custard Macaroon by The Custard Box

Macarons by Street Treats

The Matcha one is Matcha butter cream with adzuki beans in the middle.  The Chocolate one has Mocha Butter Cream, and half of it was dipped in chocolate.

These eclairs are delectable by MomoBakes.


The Coffee one is Coffee Raspberry, raspberry drizzle on top of the choux with coffee cream on top, and coffee cream in the middle. 

The Matcha one is unique, it has thin slices of peach on top, matcha glaze, peach jelly and has matcha buttercream inside.


Opening it has always been a challenge and I finally was able to open it without tearing it apart.  It has grilled salmon, avocado, green onion, furikake sprinkled on top.  You can really taste the quality of the salmon in there.  Highly recommend. 


I already tried the Panna Cotta last time at Pling.  I saw that they offered it, and had to get them again.  Between the Coffee & the Matcha one, the family all voted the coffee one.  It's more flavorful, the Matcha one is really tame. 

Bars are by Sweet & Saffron. This is the Matcha Barfi Bar - very pretty and rich as a dessert.  This is an Indian dessert with milk, matcha, sugar and coconut bits.  Texture is pretty nice, this is best shared.

The other thing they made, was Chocospresso Cheesecake Bar - this is also rich.  It's like espresso cheesecake with Oreo bit, chocolate bits and hazelnuts.  I do very much appreciate the fluffy cream that's in the middle though... Can't have this a lot but I want to... 

Sphyrn Marketing do these boxes monthly.  To participate in these Dessert Boxes, you do have to follow them on their Instagram to wait for their announcement and date for pre-order and pick up info.  I really appreciate that they pull all the Asian bakers and small businesses together and showcase them.
