A lot of people say this is a disgusting cake. Which is understandable. However, I wrote this tip for people to become aware that not every foreign recipe you try will taste good to you, and when it doesn’t taste good, don’t be rude to the people who wanted to share the recipe with you, especially one so cultural :/.

What the heck was this!!!! This turned out disgusting!!!! It might just be my opinion but I just don’t recommend spending your time making this. It looks really cool but let me say that taste isn’t as good as the looks

The recipe was easy to follow but mine turned out TERRIBLE 😕 I was super careful because I was a bit nervous, followed every step to a T. It was pretty but the texture was like trying to stick a fork into a bar of soap...

don’t know why everyone is complaining! This is a traditional Japanese dessert! She literally says in the video that the main ingredient has no flavor and this dessert tastes like sugar water, so add your favorite syrup for flavor. Be mad at yourself for not paying attention. 🙄
