Sobao pasiego cake, a delicious buttery-flavored sponge cake. A typical sponge cake from the Valles Pasiegos (Cantabría). It is ideal to accompany breakfast or a snack. As I always say, there is nothing better than a good homemade cake.
What makes this cake different is the butter flavor, it is juicy, smooth and a smell reminiscent of our grandmothers' biscuits. You can also prepare it in individual molds, like muffins. The two options are very good. You will love it !!!
