Korena of Korena in the Kitchen was our May Daring Cookers ’ host and she delighted us with this beautiful Swedish Prinsesstårta!
This was one of the stylish tasting blueberry cake galettes I ever made! It was light, full of flavor and impeccably balanced. I know it seems like alot of work but with a little planning and breaking up the work over a couple of days it becomes really easy! I made this cutlet over the weekend and the kiddies helped me make and embellish it. We had a blast.
I'm used to working with fondant( both marshmallow fondant and gelatin fondant) and I was looking forward to trying marzipan but I made a couple of miscalculations with it because this is my first time. I didn't get the almonds fine enough and as a result the marzipan wasn't as smooth as I would have liked it to be. also there was coloring it, I could n’t find gel food coloring and the liquid colors I used made the marzipan sticky. Last but not least,blueberry cake I rolled the marzipan too thin, and as a result the finished cutlet wasn't as smooth as I would have liked it to be. Still I really liked the taste of marzipan, it isn't exorbitantly sweet as fondant is and the kiddies actually ate it and loved as opposed to leaving it on their plates as they generally do with fondant
Despite all that, the cutlet was a huge hot at home. The whole family loved it and I know I'll be making it again and again.
Thank you Korena for an amazing challenge

½ tablespoon( 5 ml) almond excerpt
1 teaspoon( 15 ml) bomb juice or water
Directions

2. Add the sludge saccharinity and almond excerpt and palpitation again to combine. The admixture should be relatively dry and crispy still.
3. With the food processor handling, sluggishly mizzle in the bomb juice, stopping as soon as the admixture starts to clump together.
4. Scrape the marzipan out onto a work face and knead it into a ball. Wrap in plastic and bite overnight in the refrigerator to let the flavours grow. Makes just over 1 lb.
Fine dry breadcrumbs for the visage( similar as crushed panko)
4 large eggs, at room temperature
1 mug( 240 ml)( 225 gm)( 8 oz) granulated white sugar
½ mug( 120 ml)( 70 gm)( 2 ½ oz) each- purpose( plain) flour
½ mug( 120 ml)( 65 gm)( 2 ¼ oz) potato bounce( or cornstarch)
1 tablespoon( 5 ml)( 5 gm) incinerating greasepaint
tablespoon swab
Directions
Preheat the roaster to moderate 350 °F/ 180 °C/ gas mark 4 with a rack in the lower third of the roaster.
Completely adulation a 9 ”( 23 cm) round springform visage, line the bottom with a circle of diploma paper, also adulation thepaper.Dust the buttered visage with enough breadcrumbs to fleece the bottom and sides, just like flouring a cutlet visage. Set away.
Place the eggs and granulated white sugar in a mixing coliseum and beat on medium-high speed with an electric mixer or stand mixer with whisk attachment until the eggs are tripled in volume and veritably light coloured and ethereal, about 5 twinkles. The admixture should fall from the beaters in thick lists. Do n’t overbeat the eggs – once they form thick lists and stop growing in volume, stop beating.
Sift the each- purpose( plain) flour, potato bounce, incinerating greasepaint, and swab into a coliseum, also sift the flour admixture over the whipped eggs. With a balloon whisk, fold the flour into the eggs until blended, keeping as important air in the batter as possible. Use large, gentle yet confident strokes, bringing batter from the bottom of the coliseum to the top. Once mixed, the batter should be relatively thick and smooth.
Pour the batter into the set visage, spread it out unevenly, and singe in the lower third of the preheated moderate 350 °F/ 180 °C/ gas mark 4 roaster for about 40 twinkles or until golden brown on top, springy to the touch, and a toothpick fitted in the center comes out with a many wettish motes sticking to it.
Let the cutlet cool in the visage for a many twinkles also run a cutter around the edge and remove the sides of the springform visage. Do n’t worry if it sinks a bit in the middle.
Invert the cutlet onto a cooling rack and peel off the diplomapaper.However, press gently to make it position, also allow it to cool fully before continuing, If the cutlet is crooked. The cutlet can be made a day ahead and stored, well- wrapped in plastic, at a cool room temperature findout more
