White Chocolate OURA Matcha Mouse
Ingredients:
1/4 cup + 1 1/2 cups whipping cream
1 tbsp OURA Matcha - Culinary grade (white pouch)
2 tbsp brown sugar or use honey
1 tsp vanilla extract
120g chopped white chocolate
extra whipping cream as a topping mixed with shredded coconut
1. In a small bowl, combine your Culinary OURA matcha with 1/4 cup of the cream. Using a bamboo whisk or a standard whisk, blend thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and vibrant, ensuring no dry lumps remain.
2. Place a medium saucepan over low-to-medium heat. Add the chocolate, your matcha-cream paste, sugar, and vanilla extract. Whisk steadily as the chocolate melts to create a uniform, glossy mixture. Once smooth, remove from the heat and let it cool to room temperature.
3. Using a stand mixer or a hand whisk, beat the remaining 1 1/2 cups of cream. Continue until the cream is thick enough to hold stiff peaks that don't slump when the whisk is lifted.
4. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cooled matcha-chocolate base using a spatula. Work slowly to maintain the airiness. Pour the mousse into your serving glasses.
Pro Tip: While the mousse will be firm enough to eat after 2 hours, it is best to leave it in the refrigerator overnight. This allows the deep, umami notes of the Kagoshima matcha to fully meld with the chocolate.
5. Just before serving, top each glass with a fresh dollop of whipped cream. Sprinkle generously with shredded coconut for a tropical finish and added texture. Enjoy!

Got Questions? we've got answers
1) What grade of Matcha is yours?
It’s our Japanese highest-quality culinary grade—purpose-built for recipes.
- Bold, steady flavor that stands out in smoothies, cookies, cakes, and frostings
- Naturally vibrant green without artificial dyes
- Fine, easy-mixing powder that blends smoothly into dry or wet ingredients
- 100% matcha green tea powder, nothing added
2) How is culinary matcha different from ceremonial matcha?
Purpose & use
- Culinary matcha is made for recipes. Its flavor is bolder and slightly more bitter, so it stands up to sugar, dairy, and heat—perfect for smoothies, cookies, cakes, frostings, and sauces.
- Ceremonial matcha is made for drinking straight (traditional whisked tea). It’s delicate, naturally sweet, and creamy when whisked with water.
Leaf selection & harvest
- Culinary: typically uses slightly older or later-harvest leaves, giving a more robust taste that cuts through other ingredients.
- Ceremonial: uses the youngest, most tender leaves for a smooth, umami-rich cup.
Flavor & color
- Culinary: pronounced green-tea flavor with gentle bitterness; color can be vivid to olive-green depending on the lot.
- Ceremonial: sweeter, rounder, high-umami; usually a brighter emerald color.
Grind & texture
- Both are finely milled, but culinary can be slightly coarser (still very fine) and benefits from sifting in batters.
- Ceremonial is milled ultra-fine for a silky drink.
Price & practicality
- Culinary is more budget-friendly for recipes where you use teaspoons at a time.
- Ceremonial commands a premium due to stricter leaf selection and traditional milling for sipping quality.
Can you swap them?
- You can drink culinary, but it’ll taste stronger and more bitter.
- You can bake with ceremonial, but its delicate notes may disappear
3) How much caffeine is in it?
Roughly ~20–35 mg per 1 g of powder.
4) How do I prevent clumps?
Sift first. Whisk with a little warm water (or blend with sugar) before adding to butters or creams.
5) Does baking destroy the benefits?
Some antioxidants fade with heat, but many polyphenols and all the L-theanine/caffeine remain. You still get a meaningful “green tea” boost.
