The salad vegetables are sandwiched between Moriyasu’s layers of “sponge cake” made from soybean. The cake is covered in ‘frosting’ of tofu cream cheese and then she turns her artistry – wizardry – on the decoration. The result is Wow!

The cakes have been such a big hit with her customers that Moriyasu has just opened a new eatery, Vegedeco Salad Cafe, dedicated entirely to healthy eating, where you can enjoy a slice of gorgeous cake accompanied by a fermented dressing made with koji, and a hot cup of tea, flavoured with – you’ve guessed it – vegetables.
