10. Add the remaining caster sugar. Beat until the whisk head is lifted up to form small sharp peppers and small curved hooks. Whip until dry peaks form, so that the mixture is uneven and floats on the surface of the cake batter to form a sponge cake layer.

11. Sieve the matcha batter and pour in the meringue. Pour half first. Stir a few times, aiming to mix evenly.

12. Pour in the remaining matcha batter. No need to mix thoroughly. If you mix it carefully, the cake will be more delicate. It may also be impossible to separate into layers, so it is best not to mix evenly. There is no problem if the egg whites float on the surface.

13. Pour into the solid bottom mold. You can use a 6-inch round or pound cake mold. If you use a live bottom mold, it will leak out. Bake at 150 degrees for 40-45 minutes. It may look uncooked after baking, but it is actually done.

14. Let cool to room temperature and refrigerate for more than 2 hours.

15. I refrigerated it overnight before eating it, and the bottom layer tasted stronger. The cake was so fluffy that it melted as soon as you took a sip. The layer of custard sauce in the middle is the most delicious, with a texture that melts in your mouth.
