How To Make Gâteau Invisible (Invisible Apple Cake)
Apples are famous as the national fruit of both Argentina and Germany. But did you know that Japan is often hailed for having the most delicious apples in the world?
Aomori-made apples are deemed the 'World’s Best Apples.' Their quality is unparalleled, with perfect color, shape, and sweetness.
We'd like to introduce one of the best apple cake recipes: Gateau Invisible. Originating from France, it took Japanese social media by storm in 2017 due to its photogenic appearance.
Gateau Invisible translates to 'invisible cake' because, when baked, the apples seem to blend into the cake, becoming 'invisible.'
Made with simple ingredients like eggs, milk, flour, and sliced fruits, this eye-catching cake is perfect for entertaining guests. The apple juices soak into the dough, providing moisture. Although it resembles a butter cake, it has a more refreshing taste due to the abundance of apples.
It also pairs well with jam or ice cream. While you can enjoy it warm, it's easier to remove from the mold when cooled, offering a moister texture.
If you have leftovers, cover and refrigerate the cake for up to 3 days or tightly wrap it in plastic and freeze for about two weeks. Defrost naturally 2-3 hours before serving.
Ideal for entertaining guests during dinner or coffee, this easy and visually stunning dessert is sure to impress!
