The famous confection of Nagasaki, Kasutera

Hello.
This is May in Japan.

Today I'd like to introduce "Kasutera".

Kasutera is a famous confection of Nagasaki prefecture.

Nagasaki prefecture is located in the west end of Kyushu Island, and it is famous that Nagasaki city have been bombed with nuclear weapons in World War II.


Nagasaki historically traded with Europe and China in olden times,so Nagasaki has a culture that is a mixture of East and West.


This is "Kasutera".
It is a kind of sponge cakes which is baked with honey added.
Kasutera is moist and soft.
It is sweet and delicious.

Kasutera is loved as Japanese confectionery throughout Japan, but I think that Kasutera of Nagasaki is the most delicious !!

You should try it.
