Kashuen Morinaga Domestic Black Sesame Castella

This castella cake is baked to perfection with a rich aroma, using plenty of domestic black sesame seeds. It is crafted by Kashuen Morinaga, a long-established shop founded in Kansei 5 (1793). Only a very small fraction of the sesame seeds used in Japan are domestically grown. Morinaga takes pride in using these precious domestic black sesame seeds, specifically those from their local Shimabara region. By kneading ground sesame into the batter and adding roasted sesame seeds, the cross-section is packed with sesame grains. With over 10% of the batter's weight consisting of sesame, the savory aroma of the black sesame is fully brought out. Featuring a soft and moist castella texture with a fragrant sesame scent that lingers in the nose, this is a new take on traditional castella that sesame lovers must try.
