Pão de Ló, a traditional Portuguese sponge cake, is a light and airy dessert beloved for its simple yet satisfying flavor. Typically made with just three ingredients—eggs, sugar, and flour—it embodies the minimalist charm of classic European pastries. The high proportion of eggs gives Pão de Ló its signature spongy texture and golden hue. Originating in Portugal, it’s often enjoyed during festive occasions or as a sweet treat with coffee or tea. While its lack of added oils or fats makes it relatively low in saturated fats compared to other desserts, Pão de Ló is high in sugar, which can contribute to excessive caloric intake if consumed in large quantities. Its simplicity means it's free of artificial additives, but portion control is key for those mindful of their sugar consumption. A delightful indulgence, Pão de Ló pairs well with fresh fruit for added nutritional balance.
