PRINCESS CAKE!!!!
Should it be capitalized? I suppose not, but it is so darned good, I am going grammatically crazy and capitalizing it anyway!

And so what is it?  If you have ever had cassata cake in Cleveland, it is reminiscent of that. [Cleveland promotional commercial: ] Cleveland's cassata cake is unique - and amazing - and is, by the way, chef Mario Batali's favorite version. For more on Cleveland's cassata cake, you might want to look at this http://www.nwitimes.com/niche/shore/blogs/will-travel-for-food/mario-batali-s-pick-corbo-s-bakery-cassata-cake/article_f1ab1957-30c3-5715-b850-3a9b98ac08c7.html  Or just visit Cleveland, and while you are there, go to the Westside market, walk through the Metro Parks, listen to the amazing orchestra....oh wait, sorry,  this is supposed to be about Sweden.

Honey and Soy blogger conveniently posted this picture which I think is great because it labels the layers.



One day last week, I had a taste for Princess cake.  You may be thinking, "Why don't you just eat it every day?"  You may have a point, but I try to resist.  Anyway, we went to the local chain bakery and bought a slice.  Princess cake basically always looks like the above picture.  But since it is Yul, this cake was seasonally decorated.

If you are interested in making a princess cake and live elsewhere, you may have to make it from scratch. Which will be delicious, but a little time consuming. Here in Sweden, however, it is pretty easy because you can easily buy the pieces and parts and just construct the cake.  There is an adorable youtube video which illustrates the construction. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M9eWOXJZKf8

Either way- Enjoy!
