I have to say you are a natural teacher. I watched your video with my son, who is a baker, and we throughly enjoyed watching you make the delish looking Princess Cake, also love the pink border.
I’m making this tomorrow for a friend I stupidly told I would make any cake she wanted for her birthday. Your video is super helpful and you made me laugh. Glad to subscribe

Great to hear!!
I think this is a better version of the "famous IKEA princess cake" I used to love as a teenager!! They don't distribute this to the Czech rep. anymore! I'm so happy to find this amongst your recipes!! I'm so happy to find your channel! I'm gonna check out your apple pie recipes, because it used to be my new "IKEA favourite" before they changed the ingredience. I don't know if it's a Swedish tradition, but they used to pour a custard over - it used to be marvelous. I miss these desserts so much!

Thank you for the recipe!! I have always wanted to make this cake, and now I think I will! I believe the reasoning behind not putting powdered sugar in the whipped cream is that the sugar will draw the water out of the whipped cream and into the marcipan through osmosis, making it soggy. Also, rolling your marcipan out on the counter with powdered sugar is fine (it's what I use) because there's not any moisture for it to soak up I've never seen pre-colored and rolled marcipan like that from Odense here in DK. I'm envious! lol
Great job!

@@ceciliatolone Vi fixade det! Jag och dottern provbakade idag (födelsedagen är i slutet av månaden) och det blev en supergod prinsesstårta med hemgjord marzipan - något grovmalen, för min matberedare har sina begränsningar. Dina anvisningar var helt perfekta och vi studerade varje steg i detalj. Tårtan blev till och med ganska snygg om man tittade på den från rätt vinkel. Tack!! 💚💚💚

What's your cake pan size? Mine is a 23 cm ... the slice were 1.2 cm high, pretty thin compare to yours
Hello Cecilia. What size of baking pan are you using?
Only found you today...love the way you teach! This cake looks fabulous and your other recipes are also amazing! Just want to know why you don't make the marzipan yourself? Home made marzipan is just So much better than store bought. ( I have learned a lot from you today ....it shows that even at 68 yrs old there is plenty of techniques to learn.) Congratulations on your good work ...from Johannesburg South Africa.

I’m glad you like my videos! Thank you! I have actually never made marzipan myself as it’s so readily available here. And the type of marzipan you need for covering a cake is a bit different than the stuff you need for making figures and candies. Cake marzipan is usually really smooth and not sticky at all. I don’t even know where I’d start to make that hahah.

Marzipan is really easy to make and few ingredients....it takes the cake to a new level of wonderful taste.... I use it on fruit cakes .....I don't add gum tragicanth/ gum acacia..as one does for making figurines and flowers . Recipe- 8oz icing sugar, 8oz ground almonds , 1 lightly beaten egg, half teaspoon vanilla essence ,squeeze of lemon juice. ( I use almond essence and a touch of brandy). Sieve icing sugar, work in almonds egg and essence and just enough lemon juice to make a stiff dough...kneed lightly to a smooth paste. Try it some time you may enjoy it. We love the left over bits rolled into a small ball and dipped in chocolate!😊
make sure that people can hear you in headphones, it is so much better that way! great content!

Your explanation is clear and helpful. Thank you 😊 How long does the princess cake last in the fridge? Can i freeze it?
@ceciliatolone

Id say it’d last at a couple days. It probably wouldn’t be bad or off by day 5 but it definitely wouldn’t be nice. And you can’t freeze it because you can’t really defrost the cream, it’ll just separate. You can however freeze the cake base before you build the cake.

Does it have to be marzipain or can it be fondant ?
@ceciliatolone
Жыл бұрын
It could be fondant but, and this is just my personal opinion, fondant doesn’t taste as good as marzipan. Like the almond from the marzipan is really part of the flavor profile of this cake. So the cake would look right but not taste quite right. Again, just my opinion though

I’m drooling right now, Yummy! I made princess cake before but we live in Manila, almond paste aren’t available in this country we used to bring them from Sweden. Next time I will buy the same instead of the whole block it’s more work. I learned one thing also you mixed pastry cream and cream 50/50 I haven’t done that part. Thank you for sharing your step by step procedure I will definitely do the same.
