Hey guys! It's finally May!! Only one more month until Swedish summer! Let's celebrate with something very Swedish, the Princess cake! Not just any princess cake... No, it's a special one for the raw vegan princesses... :P

As far as the name "prinsesstårta" which means pricess cake in Swedish, it’s certainly more appealing than it's original name "Green cake.” The cake got it's new name prinsesstårta because the Swedish princesses loved the cake so much.

I've been eating prinsesstårta (read: PRIN-sess-TOHR-tah :P) since I was a child, I would say at least once a year. I know that because I always had it on my birthday. The original recipe of princess cake consists of spongy layers of cake alternating with jam, vanilla custard and whipped cream topped with a thin layer of bright green marzipan.
