Vic sponge cake
It is a sweet specialty widespread throughout the territory, probably originated in pastry shops rather than in the domestic sphere, and that for more than a century has been identified with various populations that have it as one of their typical desserts.
Light and fluffy sponge cake on the inside and toasted and soft on top, with a not very sweet taste and soft and soft texture. It is moulded in portions inside a box that identifies it. Its taste and texture make it an ideal product to accompany with chocolate, coffee with milk, or even orange juice.
The tradition of this sponge cake is closely linked to Vic. The capital of Osona is home to numerous establishments where the most traditional cake is made, and is also one of the protagonists of the market that is held every Tuesday and Saturday in the Plaza Mayor of the municipality.
