Whoa, that's amazing! Non-edible British royal wedding cake slices set for auction in Las Vegas
The royal wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle is approaching and with that the hunger for royal things like dessert is also increasing. The age-old slices of cake from British royal weddings - including those of Prince Charles and Princess Diana, and Prince William and Kate Middleton - go up for auction.
All the cake slices are expected to fetch thousands of dollars at a sale in Las Vegas, said Julien’s Auctions.
If you planning to buy the royal cake slice then you need to go through the auction.
“They’re not edible,” Darren Julien, the Los Angeles-based auction house’s chief executive, said ahead of the June 23 sale.
The auction house said, a slice from Charles and Diana’s wedding will be presented in white box with “CD Buckingham Palace 29th July 1981” in silver printing and wrapped in a paper doily is expected to fetch around $800-$1,200.
“These come from people who attended the wedding and kept them in the freezer the entire time,” Julien said of all the cake slices, adding they have not been preserved by other means.
For Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's wedding more than 600 guests are invited which will take place at Windsor Castle’s St. George’s Chapel and another 200 people for the reception.
The fruit cake made for Prince William and Kate Middleton’s 2011 wedding comes in a tin presented to guests with an enclosure card saluting attendees that said: “With best wishes from TRH The Prince of Wales and The Duchess of Cornwall in celebration of the wedding of TRH The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.”
William and Kate's cake slice is expected to sale for $600-$800. Julien’s sold a slice of William and Kate’s cake for $7,500 in 2014.
Other cake slices include Charles’ 2005 wedding to Camilla Parker Bowles and Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson’s 1986 nuptials, which each are estimated to fetch $600-$800.
The piece of royal cake from Princess Anne’s 1973 marriage to her first husband, Captain Mark Philips, is expected to sell for $300-$500.
“It’s kind of hard to throw something out that has been given to you by the royals,” Julien said.
