Japanese Recipe of the Week: Christmas Cake

It's common for Japanese people to eat Christmas cakes and roast or fried chicken on Christmas Eve. Typical Christmas cakes found in Japan are not traditional Japanese cakes, but they are round sponge cakes with fresh fruits and whipped cream toppings. Make sure to whisk eggs very well so that you can bake a fluffy sponge cake.
