Fu Castella and her deliciously moist and airy cakes

Fu Castella's specialty is castella. Don't know what it is? We'll explain: castella is a derivative of the Japanese sponge cake, which has its origins in a Portuguese cake, the pão de Castela.

Introduced and popularized in Japan and Taiwan, castella has finally arrived in France, and you're going to love it! Because castella is a cake as light and fluffy as a cloud. The recipe is a closely guarded secret, but one thing's for sure: at Fu Castella, they're made from organic French flours, fruit and local produce.

At Fu Cast ella, several castella recipes are available, in large or mini format!
