Guns arnt the only things the Portuguese brought to Japan

Japan back in the day was a very introverted little boy. Then came along the neighborhood rich kid, the Portuguese, who showed off his new toys which even the introverted loner had interest in. The biggest and best toy they had was the Gun. It would forever change the way warfare would be fought.

Another thing that was shown to Japan was a snack now called castella. Now there isnt really an American counterpart to it but a more dry pound cake would be the best description. It tastes mostly like sugar and syrup.



Now here is the Honey Castella flavored Toppo. You might think that having something taste mostly like sugar, syrup and honey be overpowering with sweetness flavor but it isn't. The biscuit around isnt really sweet at all and it helps to make the filling inside very soothing and appeasing.

Another recommendation for the Toppo family.
