Yucky poo.
But what flavor was it?
There are still pieces of Queen Victoria’s wedding cake out there too:
Video of influencer eating the cake uploaded on YouTube in 10, 9, 8, …
Someone bonkers enough to carefully (and reverentially?) preserve a piece of cake but could not even spell Diana’s name correctly?
Figures.
I had a piece of wedding cake and some table snacks from my friend’s first wedding in 1992. I used to needle him that I’ve had it in my fridge longer than that marriage lasted. When his 2nd wife died last year I threw it out because it wasn’t so funny any more.
Good thing, cuz ita give you a stomachacake!
I don’t think even Shoenice would have eaten that brick.
Old, and stale with a hint of rancid almond
Let them eat forty-year-old cake.
Seems cheap.
If there wasn’t a counterfeit cake market, there is now.
Also, they had different cake for the staff?
It’s really just bread. They were grateful to have it.
Was this kept by Miss Havisham?
