Sweden Celebrates a New Princess

Yesterday Princess Victoria of Sweden gave birth to Princess Estelle. The royal birth is overwhelming for Sweden, as this is Victoria & Daniel’s first bundle of joy.

Swedes are celebrating the birth of the new baby princess with no other than the Swedish Princess cake. The Princess cake is a traditional Swedish cake, consisting of cream sponge layers, whipped cream, vanilla custard, and topped with a delicious layer of marzipan. Bakeries all over Sweden are selling out of the popular cake; some are bringing in extra staff to help with the overwhelming orders.

Did you know: In Sweden, the state pays parents $157 CND per child, per month until the child turns 16?
