Swedish Princess Cake

Overview

I have always wanted to make this cake. The marzipan crust used in this cake tastes much better than fondant. After I made the baby, I ate two pieces and said it was delicious. Even though it was six inches long, two pieces was not a lot! The cake inside is a sponge cake I made. Sandwiched in the middle is homemade raspberry jam.

The sugar coating is easy to break, so be sure to roll it out in plastic wrap. Mark the size and tear off one side of the plastic wrap, cover it on the cake, and then tear off the other side of the plastic wrap.
