1
Remove the skin from the sweet potato and soak for a short time in water.

Boil until softened and then smash.

Strain to make it smooth.
6
It's a lot of work, but if you don't, it will clog up in the piping nozzle.
7
If the strained potatoes are too thick and hard, add milk until it becomes loose enough to pipe easily.
8
Make a sturdy whipped cream with heavy cream and sugar.
9
Cut the sponge cake into tree shapes (square pyramids) and place on a biscuit.
10
Pipe the whipped cream over the cake, and then pipe the matcha cream over the whipped cream with a mont blanc piping tip.

Make them so they look like trees.
12
Decorate with silver dragees and powdered sugar, and then they're done.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
Coconut cream is a reliable plant-based alternative to dairy cream.
