Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Melt the butter and white chocolate together, either over the stovetop or in the microwave. Let the mixture cool to room temperature.
In a separate bowl, whip the egg and sugar together using a hand mixer or stand mixer until the mixture thickens and becomes white in color.
Sift the flour and baking powder into the egg mixture. Fold in the flour mixture until well combined.
Add the cooled butter and white chocolate mixture to the egg-flour mixture and mix until smooth.
Divide the batter into three equal portions.
Mix matcha powder into one portion, and black sesame paste into another. Leave the third portion plain.
Marble the three different batters by spooning them into your prepared loaf tin, then gently swirl with a knife or spatula to create a marbled effect.
Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool slightly before serving.

Notes

Adjust the amount of matcha powder for a stronger or milder matcha flavor.
You can add nuts like toasted almonds or macadamia nuts for added texture.
For a sweeter touch, drizzle white chocolate glaze over the cake after it cools.
