Who is the strongest Princess?
The answer the pops to mind would be 'Celestia' of course. She has ruled Equestria for a thousand years and moves to the sun in the sky... That speaks to a level of god-like power. However, she is easily defeated in one on one combat by a single Changeling fueled by the love of a single unicorn. Even when she defeated Nightmare Moon and Discord, it was not with her own power but with the borrowed might of the Wlements of Harmony. Celestia may be a strong ruler, but she may not be the strongest Princess.
The next best guess would be Luna. As Nightmare Moon, at least, she seemed to be more than a match for Celestia. On top of that, her powers of dream-walking is fairly unique, granting her the ability to help or hinder friends and foes as they sleep. Ultimately, though, she seems to consider herself somewhat lesser compared to her sister and often defers to her. Such deference is not a weakness, but without her dark powers it's possible Luna is not the strongest Princess.
So who is left?
Twilight isn't a bad candidate. The active element of magic, she has defeated many powerful foes. Granted, that has usually been with powers granted by the Elements of Harmony, or some other artifact, but she is an accomplished magician all the same, and has a vast working knowledge of helpful spells. The thing is, however, she doesn't seem to be much more powerful than she was as a unicorn. While Twilight doesn't strain under her spell casting as much as she did before the wings, she still hasn't shown any unique or inate powers related specifically to her ascension. Twilight may be strong, but maybe not the strongest Princess.
Then there is Cadance. Cadance is admittedly a secret powerhouse. Not only does she seem to have the ability to boost others magic (specifically Shining Armor's shield spell when the Changelings were first defeated), but she also can deploy a formidable shield spell of her own. Then there is the (frankly terrifying) ability she innately has as the Princess of Love, being able to make even arguing ponies fall in love with one another. It's powerful enough if the spell simply enhances affection that is already there... If Cadance is capable of imposing love, then she is very powerful indeed. Cadance May quietly be the strongest Princess of all... Given she has her own Empire to rule, simply moving celestial bodies may not be all that impressive.
Lastly there is Flurry Heart. While she clearly has a ton of raw power (that she seems to exercise instinctually) she is still just a baby. Her power may be hers to command, but her strength may actually lay with her mother. If Flurry Heart did turn out to be the strongest Princess, then her strength would still be a part of Cadance's over all power.
In the end, I think Cadance May be the strongest Princess.
