We will make 300 chiffon cakes.
The Spring Nishiokoppe Marche was held at the entrance of the Roadside Station "Kamu".

What I look forward to every time is the fluffy chiffon cake,
which can only be found at the marche.

I visited Yumemura Mori no Garden, the vendor,
to see them making chiffon cakes.

Over the three days of the marche,
they sold an incredible 300 chiffon cakes!

They offered two types: plain and chocolate chip,
with 150 of each.

Yumemura Mori no Garden, also known as "Mori-Gā",
also sold wild vegetable tempura soba and udon, yamame tempura, and Setoushi-kun grilled.

I was amazed not only by the variety of items for sale,
but also by the number of eggs used.

(I heard they brought in over 600 eggs for this marche...)

First, they weighed the ingredients for one batch to bake in the oven.
Birch sap harvested in the village was one of the ingredients.

Then, they mixed the ingredients and poured them into the molds.

Egg whites and yolks were mixed separately in different bowls, and once the meringue had risen, they combined them at the end... it's a meticulous method.

While baking, they proceeded to prepare the next batch...
From gathering at 8 AM to packaging, it took about six hours!

This chiffon cake, popular among the villagers,
was completely sold out early on the third day of the marche.

Fluffy and, when placed in the mouth,
the gentle sweetness spreads throughout.

The next time we meet will be at the autumn marche in September.
Please look forward to it.
