Castella or Kasutera is a popular Japanese sponge cake made of sugar, flour, eggs, and starch syrup, very common at festivals and as a street food.

Now a specialty of Nagasaki, the cake was brought by way of Portuguese merchants in the 16th century.

The name is delivered from Portuguese Pão de Castella, meaning "bread from Castile".

Castella cake is usually sold in long boxes, with the cake inside being approximately 27cm long.

It is somewhat similar to Madeira cake, also associated with Portugal, but its closest relative is Pão-de-ló, also a Portuguese cake.

By using only highly nutritious eggs that are born in hygienic and well-managed poultry houses, and the starch syrup contains luxurious glutinous rice syrup emphasize the moistness of the castella.

It is delivered in a set of 3 with different tastes, packed with the attention of craftsmen.
