Tea desserts with friends: Le Ruban × TSUJIRI returns with strawberry crêpe cake and a NT$230 pudding parfait
Le Ruban’s 2026 matcha collection pairs TSUJIRI’s 丸韻 matcha with strawberries, peaches and chestnuts across cakes, cream rolls and frozen desserts. The 22-layer crêpe cake is NT$280 a slice; the pudding parfait is NT$230. Here are the formats, prices and alcohol details.
Meeting friends for dessert need not mean ordering a whole cake. In information issued on October 30, Le Ruban Pâtisserie announced its 2026 matcha collection with TSUJIRI, using 丸韻 matcha in fruit cakes, cheesecake, cream rolls and frozen desserts, alongside hojicha pastries. Single portions, slices and whole cakes offer different ways to plan around the group’s size and preferences, including ordering individually and sharing.
Ingredients and pastry formats distinguish these desserts, rather than a single pursuit of intense bitterness. Strawberries, peaches, chestnuts, mascarpone and dairy each play a different part. All prices below are the brand’s announced New Taiwan dollar prices. Confirm participating stores, daily stock, ordering arrangements and the season’s dates with Le Ruban; the date information was sent is not proof that every item went on sale that day.
Strawberries in crêpe layers, peaches in chiffon
The 抹茶緋紅22階 cake layers matcha crêpes with matcha mascarpone filling, matcha cream, house-made strawberry sauce and fresh American strawberries, finished with matcha chantilly and ganache-style matcha chocolate. A slice is NT$280 and a seven-inch cake NT$2,200. The photograph shows a strawberry ring on the whole cake and green layers with fruit in the separate slice. These are its composition and appearance, not a guarantee that everyone will perceive the same sweetness or tea intensity.
The peach-matcha chiffon, 桃映抹綠戚風蛋糕, is NT$160 a slice. Matcha chiffon is combined with matcha whipped cream, filling and glaze, peaches and berry-peach jelly, with matcha chocolate, pistachio and chocolate decoration. The 莓香抹茶千層 is a different dessert: French puff pastry with matcha mousse, strawberry cream, sauce and fresh strawberries. It costs NT$200 a slice or NT$1,650 for six inches and should not be confused with the 22-layer crêpe cake.
Check portions and alcohol ingredients in cheesecake and rolls
The double-layer burnt matcha cheesecake combines lighter and stronger matcha flavours, a torched surface and brandy notes. It is NT$160 a slice, NT$980 for five inches and NT$1,280 for seven inches. The matcha-berry opera cake combines matcha almond sponge, matcha liqueur syrup, buttercream and berry ganache at NT$180 a slice. The collection cannot therefore be described as entirely alcohol-free; anyone avoiding alcohol should check each item.
The 宇治丸韻抹茶生乳捲 cream roll is NT$150 a slice or NT$680 whole. Matcha sponge encloses OMU fresh cream, matcha cream and matcha ganache, with caramelised almond flakes. A chestnut option combines matcha-chestnut filling, matcha crème brûlée, alcohol-scented chantilly and caramel meringue at NT$200 each. Dairy, almonds and alcohol-related ingredients vary between recipes, so discuss dietary restrictions with companions and verify individual ingredients before choosing.
A NT$230 pudding parfait, plus smaller hojicha treats
The 濃韻抹茶布丁百匯 parfait costs NT$230 and combines matcha soft serve, Showa-style pudding, sweetened red beans and Sicilian lemon-yuzu jelly. Its photograph shows pudding, beans and green soft serve layered in glass cups. Matcha soft serve on its own is NT$120 per cup or cone and uses matcha, milk, cream and egg yolk. A vivid tea colour does not make it dairy-free or egg-free.
Glass pudding parfaits topped with red beans and green matcha soft serve
Smaller pastries include a NT$75 hojicha Dubai-chocolate madeleine with hojicha cake and a crisp hojicha-chocolate filling. Other options include a NT$65 matcha-filled madeleine, NT$85 matcha scone and NT$85 matcha choux. The released details provide a starting point for comparing formats and budgets. Flavour intensity is part of the brand’s recipe description, not a tasting conclusion from this publication; check that the desired items are available before visiting.
