When visiting Kanazawa, it’s really easy to be drawn in by all the glittering gold leaf desserts! I’d heard that Ukokkei-an’s Silkie Egg Castella was quite famous, so I made a special trip to check it out. Made with silkie chicken eggs, the cake has a rich egg flavor and a delicate, moist texture, with the natural sweetness of honey. The top is covered with a layer of shimmering gold leaf, making it a distinctive souvenir as well.

The first time I passed by, I tried the gold leaf ice cream and thought it was so rich. Then I went back and bought the pudding and the Silkie egg gold leaf castella too.
The egg flavor is super rich, and now whenever I see a store selling it, I always buy one. It’s also sold on the departure floor (2nd floor) at Komatsu Airport.
But sometimes you might not be able to get one because it sells out.
