China Agricultural University cafeteria launches viral frog-shaped cake

A matcha pudding cake designed to look like a toad has become a viral sensation at the China Agricultural University in Beijing. Named the ‘Prince Frog,’ the dessert is priced at 9.9 yuan and features a realistic green design that replicates the spots and skin wrinkles of a toad.

The cake, made from ingredients including matcha powder, sugar, heavy cream, milk, and vanilla extract, is produced daily between 8:00 and 9:00 AM and typically sells out quickly. Students have noted that the unique, unconventional appearance appeals to a desire for novelty and humor among young people, despite its striking visual impact.

The university's cafeteria has a history of introducing creative and unconventional dishes, such as soybean ice cream and ostrich meat, which have gained popularity on social media.
