How about some vanilla ice cream with that Shortcake!! Most Japanese people can NOT pronounce "Vanilla" correctly. Most people say "Ba-nilla," but this is incorrect!!! Can you pronounce "vanilla" correctly? Please check out the "comments" for Ms. e`s answer to the shortcake question.
Short cake is also called "short bread" is made from shortening(ex.butter,lard) and has a light texture."Short" has a meaning of crumbly .So it is considered one theory of origin of a word "shortcake" In Japan,the first shortcake was created by Mr.Fujii he was a founder of"Fujiya" (famous confectionary maker in Japan,has "Peko-chan" brand)He improved shorcake using for sponge-type cake in order to match it toJapanese taste. So in other countries,they call a cake that biscuit sandwiches strawbelliesor other fruits and put cream on the top as "shortcake"but in Japan we call Fujiya's style cake as "shortcake" Please check it out!
