THE MOST KAWAII CAKE I'VE EVER SEEN, AND IT ISN'T EVEN JAPANESE.

PIC(S) INFO: Spotlight on the Swedish Princess Cake, a.k.a., "Prinsesstårta," by Sprinkle Bakes. Recipe + 📸: Heather Baird.

MINI-OVERVIEW: Swedish Princess Cake (Prinsesstårta) is a classic Scandinavian torte with layers of sponge cake, raspberry jam, vanilla custard, and whipped cream. It is traditionally dome-shaped and covered with a layer of sweet marzipan tinted green.

SHORT HISTORY: "Prinsesstårta has its origins in the 1920’s with Jenny Akerstrom, a Swedish home economics guru who was an instructor to the three daughters of Prince Carl, Duke of Vastergotland: the Princesses Margaretha, Martha and Astrid. The cake was renamed Princess Cake rather than Gron Tarta or Green Cake because the Princesses loved the cake so much. Currently, the cake is baked all over Sweden and is popular for special occasions."

simple tuppkaka <3

ingredients: for one cake made in a circular tin measuring approx. 25 cm / 10 inches across

75 g / 0.3 cup - butter

3 dl / 1.25 cups - sugar

2 eggs

2.5 dl / 1 cup - flour

1.5 dl / 0.6 cup - fresh red currants (but any kind of berry will do)

a bit of almond flakes

+ a bit of butter and breadcrumbs to line the pan

1. set the oven to 200 C° / 392 F° (normal setting, for hot air temp. needs adjusting)

2. melt the butter on the stove, when melted remove from heat. stir in the sugar and eggs.

3. stir in the flour, and stir so the batter is smooth

4. pour in oven-safe, lined, pan. spread the berries evenly on top, and spread almond flakes on top of these. (i gently press the berries down in the batter, but that's a personal preference)

5. bake low in the oven for 20-25 minutes

notes: i'm not very exakt on the measurements when i bake it, so don't worry about measuring perfectly. the cake is slightly gooey and sweet, and pairs well with currants (which are slightly sour berries). tuppkaka means rooster-cake <3

and done! <3
