The intricate ingredients behind a royal wedding cake
In short: Discover the specific components and artisanal process used to create Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's wedding cake at Windsor Castle.
Claire Ptak, owner of East London's Violet Bakery, was selected to craft the 'ethereal-tasting' cake for the royal nuptials. To create this dish, one must gather a selection of premium components such as 10 bottles of elderflower cordial, 500 eggs, and 200 Amalfi lemons.
While much of the preparation occurred beforehand, Ptak traveled to Windsor to apply the final decorations personally. These included three distinct varieties of peonies, chosen specifically because they are Meghan Markle's favorite flower.
