I added 2 tsp of green tea powder instead of half.

Hi Jemma, I just wanted to let you know that I absolutely LOVE watching your baking videos, they put a smile on my face every time I watch them! I love your baking and especially how interactive you are with your viewers and so encouraging and suggestive. Keep doing what your doing and I look forward to watching your videos every week and obviously a lot of other people do too.❤️😘👍💁🏼
Love from Kate
I love all things matcha. This recipe is a keeper.
Can I use all-purpose flour and baking soda instead of self raising flour? If so, how much baking soda (powder)
are any substitutes for matcha powder?
I just made these but filled the center with a raspberry jam – very good recipe, everyone loved them!
Just curious why you use spoons instead of an ice cream scoop like a lot of other people do to put the batter into the cupcake tins.
Hi, Jemma. Can you make a Japanese green tea ice cream?
I've made this cupcake from your recipe and it turns so good,,, the cupcake texture is so light and fluffy.. it also great combination with white chocolate ganache frosting.. my husband & kids love it! big thanks Jemma 🙂
the cupcakes taste amazing but they sink in the middle 🙁 wat did I do that is wrong?
can I use normal green tea powder if I don't have the matcha powder?
Can I use caster sugar instead of icing sugar for the frosting?
Can i put a mixture of matcha & spirulina ?
Can you do a tattoo diary??
Jemma, please share substitute for eggs please.
For me they are too fatty. Next time will use less butter.
Made these and they tasted delicious! Thank you for the easy to follow and great recipe!
hmm,nice:)
Gorgeous I love Green Tea 🍵
This looks delicious but how could I make this recipe vegan?
Love the music in this one 😀
Jemma, you got my favorite😍. Can i ask for Green tea frappe or cake?????
This is wonderfully therapeutic to watch and fabulous instruction. Feel I’m learning from the best. Thank you so much Cupcakes Jemma! 🌟💐🙏
I like your face while you finished the instruction n your mixer running 😂 so funny also cute😂😂.
Thank you for sharing.
I love your videos for a number of reasons, but one of them is that you actually scrape your bowls to make sure nothing is wasted (a lot of cooking videos focus on clean, quick movements but end up leaving a ton of batter / chocolate / cream all over the bowls and it makes me so nervous hahaha)
Hi. can i use all purpose flour ?
i love how a person with badass looking tattoos is also a cupcake enthusiast.
These look amazing!
Hi jemma, is there a way to substitute matcha powder with green tea?
