Swedish Princess cake

marzipan

🥗Healthier: almond paste

💰Cheaper: fondant

Almond paste has fewer sugars and can be more affordable than marzipan.

cake flour

🥗Healthier: whole wheat flour

💰Cheaper: all-purpose flour

Whole wheat flour adds nutrients while all-purpose is more accessible.

whipped cream

🥗Healthier: coconut cream

💰Cheaper: store-bought whipped topping

Coconut cream provides a dairy-free option, while store-bought is often less expensive.

raspberry jam

🥗Healthier: fresh raspberries

💰Cheaper: strawberry jam

Fresh raspberries are lower in sugar, and strawberry jam is often cheaper.

Start with a light sponge cake.

After the cake has cooled down, cut it into three equal layers using a cake lover.

Spread raspberry (frozen or fresh) on top of the first layer.

Place the second layer on top and press it down to add height.

Make pastry cream and put it on top as soon as it has cooled.

Add delicious whipped cream with vanilla bean paste for extra flavor on top of the pastry cream.

Try to shape the cake into a dome with the whipped cream.

Place the third layer on top and cover the entire cake with the remaining whipped cream to resemble a dome.

Cover the cake with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight or for at least 5 hours.

Roll out marzipan and drizzle it over the top of the cake, smoothing it as neatly as possible.

Before serving, dust with powdered sugar and decorate with a rose and leaves.
