Vanilla Cake covered in chocolate ganache and molded to look like a princess…

Come Summer and it’s time for school vacations. My daughter wanted to do something exciting, besides learning Spanish that is. All the Masterchef shows and Ultimate Cake Off episodes she had been watching must have excited her, when one fine day she told me she wanted to make a cake which resembles a princess. All she had ever baked was cupcakes, but the excitement in her tone not only made me give her the permission but also gladly become her assistant. Honestly, even I had never ever made a ganache or a fondant. But I loved taking up the challenge. Thus started our journey into making the Princess cake. I named it the princess Cake not because it resembles a princess but because it is the hard work of my little princess.

Both of us knew how…
