00:00This is the most expensive cake in the world.
00:02It is called Castella, and almost no one can buy it.
00:04Even if you were a billionaire like Elon Musk, you wouldn't be able to get it.
00:08The reason is that this rare pastry is offered only to a very restricted group of people.
00:12The Castella cake is famous for its extremely soft and elastic texture,
00:16which literally melts in your mouth.
00:17But what makes it so expensive?
00:19The secret lies in the fact that it is made only 69 times a year.
00:22In addition, its recipe is kept under the strictest secrecy
00:25and protected by very tight security measures.
00:27Despite this, some people have managed to uncover its method of preparation.
00:31First, 500 eggs are cracked into a huge container,
00:33then an entire team carefully separates the yolks from the whites by hand with extreme precision.
00:38The egg whites are placed in an industrial mixer with salt, sugar, and baking powder
00:42until a light and airy foam is obtained.
00:44At the same time, the yolks are mixed with flour and milk
00:46until the mixture becomes smooth and homogeneous.
00:48Next, the two preparations are very gently folded together.
00:51The batter is then baked in a special oven for 20 minutes.
00:54The result is the legendary cake that has been sold for millions of dollars.
