The town of Moya in Gran Canaria is preparing to mobilise to prevent the loss of one of its most famous symbols.

05.08.2010 - Moya is famous throughout the Canaries for its delicious sponge cakes, which have been produced in the town for years, but the company that makes them has announced it is moving shortly to nearby Guía due to a planning oversight. “We need more storage space to comply with EU regulations and cannot continue in our present premises, an old house. Moya council did not see fit to designate the area as industrial so we are prevented from expanding here under local regulations” explained the cake-maker’s manager Salvador Ramos, who is angry at the enforced move. Given the rivalry between the two towns, news of the proposed move has triggered a furious reaction from Moya locals, who have launched a ‘save our cakes’ campaign to pressure the local authorities into finding a solution to the problem.
