The Chinese word 蛋糕 (dàngāo) for "cake" is derived from the Portuguese word "pão de Castella", which means "bread from Castile". The Portuguese introduced this type of sponge cake to Japan during the 16th century, where it became known as "kasutera". The Chinese adopted the term from the Japanese pronunciation, and it eventually evolved into the modern Chinese word 蛋糕. The first character, "dàn" (蛋), means "egg", referring to the main ingredient used in making cakes. The second character, "gāo" (糕), is a general term for various types of Chinese pastries, including cakes.
