# Creamy Tea Condiments This Japanese Sado-Themed Toast Spread Combines Matcha Green Tea and Cream By Alyson Wyers | Published 2016-05-11 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/toast-spread References: [japantrendshop](http://www.japantrendshop.com/aohata-thick-matcha-and-cream-spread-p-3403.html) This toast spread moves away from traditional bread-topping condiments like jam or peanut butter by incorporating an energizing green tea variety. The Aohata Thick Matcha and Cream Spread is described as an "Uji green tea breakfast toast condiment" inspired by traditional Japanese tea ceremonies. The finely ground powder is a popular flavor in the east and is often integrated into a wide range of candies and other treats. The unusual toast spread has two dispensers: one where the matcha comes out and other for the cream. In addition to squeezing it on toast, the product can be used on a number of other pastries and food items. It comes in a set of three, with four packs contained in each. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.5/10 - Popularity: 26% | Activity: 11% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Matcha Condiments:** There is an opportunity to create other products that incorporate matcha green tea into traditional condiments beyond just tea spreads. - **Sado-themed Foods:** There is a market for incorporating traditional Japanese tea ceremony themes into food products. - **Dispensable Condiments:** There is an opportunity for creating products with multiple dispensers to allow customers to better customize their condiment usage. ### Who This Affects Most - **Food and Beverage:** There is an opportunity for growth in creating unique flavors to stand out in the food and beverage industry. - **Hospitality:** There is an opportunity to incorporate sado-themed foods into hotel and restaurant menus to cater to customers seeking unique experiences. - **Packaging:** There is an opportunity for creating innovative packaging solutions for dispensable condiments to make them more user-friendly. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Matcha Cream Cheese Spreads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/matcha-schmear.md) - [Matcha-Infused Sweet Breads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/go-green.md) - [Tea-Infused Yuzu Jellies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/green-tea-and-yuzu-spread.md) - [Intense Matcha Soft Serves](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/matcha-soft-serve.md) - [Umami Matcha-Infused Ketchups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tomatcha-ketchup.md) - [Curated Matcha Bundle Boxes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/matcha-box.md) - [Red Bean-Flavored Toast Spreads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bourbon-nosete-yaku-an-butter-sheets.md) - [Functional Matcha-Focused Blends](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/matcha-collection.md) - [Triple-Layer Matcha Yogurts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/strawberry-matcha-yogurt.md)
