Instructions
- Combine milk, water, sugar, agar-agar powder, matcha powder, vanilla extract, and salt in a saucepan. Whisk until smooth and bring to a gentle simmer, stirring constantly until fully dissolved.
- Pour the mixture into dome-shaped silicone molds, filling each cavity halfway. Refrigerate until partially set.
- Whip mascarpone cheese, heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, vanilla bean paste, and melted white chocolate until smooth, airy, and fluffy. Transfer to a piping bag.
- Pipe a generous mound of white chocolate dream filling into the center of each partially set dome. Cover with the remaining matcha mixture and refrigerate until fully set.
- Carefully unmold the domes onto a chilled serving platter.
- For the glaze, gently warm white chocolate, heavy cream, honey, vanilla extract, and matcha powder until smooth and glossy. Allow to cool slightly while remaining pourable.
