My chef wannabe daughter #2 dished up this dessert for her granny, my mum, on her 69th birthday several days ago…

It’s a small slice of the birthday cake (green tea cake with sweetened adzuki beans), with a huge chunk of cream scraped off coz she knows that granny can’t take dairy products, topped with healthy accompaniments like toasted pecans, almonds, pistachios, fresh cherries and freshly plucked mint leaves from our pot.

How thoughtful and sweet of that 10-year old girl eh? 🙂
