With the Coronation of King Charles III approaching, people are gearing up to celebrate the historical moment with a quintessentially British pairing – tea and cake. To answer the question of what cake matches the personality of each member of the Royal Family, the UK’s largest independent online cake manufacturer, Sponge.co.uk, has revealed the perfect cake pairings.
Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex – Ginger and Walnut Carrot Cake
Prince Harry’s personality is best matched with the ‘ginger and walnut carrot cake.’ The flavour combinations of the cake are representative of the Duke of Sussex. Like the cake, Harry is fruity with a tinge of spice.
Kate, Princess of Wales – Victoria Sponge
Kate is perfectly matched with the ‘Victoria Sponge’ cake, which is quintessentially British, classy, and universally popular.
William, Prince of Wales – Chocolate and Caramel
Prince William best suits the chocolate and caramel cake as both are smooth, soft, and reliable for any occasion.
Sarah, Duchess of York – Nutella Cake
The Duchess of York’s personality is perfectly represented by the “Nutella cake.” Like the cake, Fergie is a bit nutty and not everyone’s first choice, but once given a chance, both the cake and Fergie will prove to be a unique and welcomed choice.
Anne, Princess Royal – Lemon Drizzle
Princess Anne’s personality reflects that of the ‘lemon drizzle’ – zingy, sharp, and her conversations juicy – in keeping with her quick wit and unique sense of humour. Lemon drizzle, like the Princess Royal, is quite a traditional choice for many, and nobody would seemingly regret it.
Prince George of Wales – Rainbow Cake
Prince George is perfectly matched with the ‘rainbow cake,’ which is fun, innocent, admired by all, and never receives a frosty reception. Its bright, diverse colouring is perhaps representative of what the future of the Monarchy could look like.
Camilla, Queen Consort – Red Velvet Cake
The ‘red velvet cake’ is the perfect choice for the Queen Consort as it is romantic, passionate, and bright, just like Camilla’s feelings towards her King.
King Charles III – Kale and Apple Cake
The kale and apple cake is bright green in colour, showcasing King Charles III’s never-ending support for greater sustainability and protecting the environment. It is the perfect choice for the King, who has championed greener living for years.
Each member of the Royal Family has a completely different cake to match their unique personality. What cake would you match with each member of the Windsor’s? Are there any missed Royals here?
