Maybe not japanese but I'll tell you that later...

Castella is coming to town!

For those of you who like sponge cake, well maybe you should try Castella.Oh and in the title it said that maybe castella isn't japanese because it was a portuguese origin. They ate castella mostly in festivals and street food. ^^Castella comes in many shapes and sizes.

The rest of the facts are from Wikipedia.

1.Castella could be preserved for a long time, so sailors would use castella if they were out in the sea for several months.

2.Now castella is made with many kinds of ingredients such as powdered green tea, brown suger, and honey.

3. Castella is just like sponge cake.
