Talk:Castella

message: I never heard about a "pão de espanha" in Portugal. All sponge cakes are refered as "pão-de-ló". Perhaps it was a name in ancient times but no one calls it by that name anymore.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.136.173.42 (talk) 15:41, 14 May 2010 (UTC)

message: "Castella is made of natural ingredients, so its simple taste is a favorite of many Japanese people. ". Unsourced statement. Castella sold nowadays is full of artificial sugar and additives, and being natural has absolutely no relation to being liked by Japanese people. It seems to imply that other countries prefer `artificial` food.  --114.182.186.40 (talk) 13:07, 20 May 2010 (UTC)

message: This article should be of at least mid-importance, since castella is now a widely known speciality of Nagasaki Prefecture (better known than Ikkōkō), and it is now somewhat popular in Taiwan.--RekishiEJ (talk) 10:28, 24 June 2019 (UTC)

message: "There is no confectionery called “Castella” in Portugal, and the prototype confectionery described later also differs in appearance and manufacturing method from Kasutera (Castella)."
What is this 'prototype confectionary' described later, is it talking about the part where they describe how Nagasaki castella is made? This seems very inconsistent. Later on it says "the cake was brought to Japan by Portuguese merchants in the 16th century." But didn't the first sentence ^ above just say that there was no confectionary called Castella in Portugal? So what is it then? I'd just like some clarification and better wording.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.41.88.6 (talk) 12:28, 3 July 2020 (UTC)

message: What's pão de castela? Isn't it castello, castle... it seems the way the cake is made, using the popular and common baking technique "clara de ovos em castello" using eggs whites, and castella may be just a misstranslation as it is the feminine word for Castello / castelo the same word using for Castille in Spain, which also means the same.-Pedro (talk) 20:00, 12 November 2021 (UTC)
