Prinsesstårta

A Scandinavian snack built around sponge cake and heavy cream — on the table in 120 minutes. At 1142 calories and 12g protein per serving, it fits easily into a high-protein day. Leftovers keep well, so it doubles as next-day lunch without any extra work.

Ingredients

• 1 lb Sponge cake
• 3 cups Heavy cream
• 1.5 cups Vanilla custard
• 1/2 cup Raspberry jam
• 1 lb Marzipan
• 1/4 cup Powdered sugar
• 3 drops Green food coloring

Steps

1. Split the sponge into three layers; spread the bottom with raspberry jam and a thick layer of custard.
2. Add the middle layer, more custard, and a dome of whipped cream — the dome shape is the signature.
3. Roll the tinted marzipan thin and drape it over the dome, smoothing without tearing.
4. Trim the base neatly, dust with powdered sugar, and crown with a marzipan rose.
5. Chill 2 hours; prinsesstårta is Sweden's celebration cake, green as spring.
