    These Vegan Matcha Cups have two layers. A lower layer of Dates, Cacao, Walnuts, and Coconut, and the top layer is of Coconut Cream, Matcha, and Cashew Nuts. When both of these layers combine, they sure do look gorgeous but taste even better.

    I love these small frozen treats, especially for the summers. Since it's so hot these days it's only wise to eat out of the freezer. And these No-Bake Vegan Matcha Cups are my perfect lunch for the day.

    Is Matcha Healthy?

    Matcha is one of the healthiest Green Teas out there. It's filled with antioxidants, especially Catechins. Matcha helps prevent cancer, helps reduce the risk of heart diseases, promotes weight loss by increasing metabolism.

    What does Matcha Tastes Like?

    Matcha is actually a Green Tea that is grown in the shady areas for 3-4 weeks. It's got a typical "Grass - Like" taste to itself. So, many people don't like it. However, you can include this in your desserts, and it's indefinitely going to taste amazing.

    And of course, that bright green color is what we love the most about Matcha.

    How much Matcha is too much Matcha?

    Matcha should only be used in an appropriate amount, or else it just mars the taste of the recipe. Especially a dessert. For these Vegan Matcha Cups, you need only 1 teaspoon of Matcha to make the top layer.

    Tips to make the best Vegan Matcha Cups

    These Vegan Matcha Cups are surely adorable, and easy to make, however, these few tips will help you to make it perfectly every single time.

    • You can skip Dates if you do not like them. Use soaked Cashew Nuts as a replacement
    • Soak Cashew Nuts overnight. I prefer to soak them in coconut cream itself and then pour all of it into the blender while making these cups. You can also, soak the Cashew in boiling water for 1 hour.
    • Do not use a lot of Matcha. Use only a limited amount of Matcha for best results.
    • If you want you can avoid Coconut Sugar and just replace it with honey or maple syrup.

    Storing Vegan Matcha Cups

    You can store these Vegan Matcha Cups at room temperature if you live in a cool place. However, since these are frozen treats, so they are best stored in the freezer.

    I love to store these in the freezer. For best results, place in the muffin tin and wrap with aluminum foil on top so that no ice crystals enter the Matcha Cups. These will stay good for up to 1 week.
