e/Financier (pastry)

Information
has gloss	eng: A financier is a small French cake, often mistaken for a pastry. The financier is a light teacake, similar to sponge cake, and usually contains almond flour, crushed or ground almonds, or almond flavoring. The basis of the cake itself is beurre noisette (brown butter), egg whites, powdered sugar and flour. Financiers are often baked in shaped molds. The name "financier" is said to derive from the traditional rectangular mold, which resembles a bar of gold. Another theory says that the cake became popular in the financial district of Paris surrounding La Bourse du Commerce (the former name of the Paris stock exchange).

Japanese
has gloss	jpn: フィナンシェ（仏: financier）またはフリアン（friand ）とは、フランス起源のバターケーキや焼き菓子の一種。フランス語の発音としては"フィナンシェ"というよりも"フィナンシエ"と最後の "er" をはっきりさせた方が正しい。これは、フランス語では "cier" は1音節ではなく、 "ci" と "er" の2音節であり、またフランス語において音節は一音一音正確に発音されるためである。
