The day has finally arrived for Royal wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle which will take place on Saturday (May 19). Back in November 2017, the world rejoiced as Prince Harry and Meghan Markle announced their engagement. Now, the couple will walk down the aisle and become husband and wife and start their new journey.

A lot of speculations about their wedding cake are making rounds. While the wedding rehearsals took place on Friday (May 18), the wedding cake is being given finishing touches. Kensington Palace took to their Twitter handle and shared a video of the wedding cake being made by Chef Claire Ptak.

Kensington Palace tweeted, “Watch as baker Claire Ptak begins work on the #RoyalWedding Cake!”

Talking about the cake for the royal wedding and what flavour the cake is, Claire revealed, “We’ve been so lucky to work at Buckingham Palace to bake the cake and ice the cakes. The cake is made up of lemon sponge, it had an elderflower syrup drizzle on the sponge. It has an Amalfi lemon curd and then it had a Swiss meringue buttercream with elderflower. We will assemble it in-situ at Windsor Castle on Saturday (May 19) morning. And then add the flowers, because they obviously need to be added at the last moment.”

Claire said, “Where the buttercream is sweet, the lemon curd is very tart. So you get really lovely thing happening when you take a bite which is to get all of those flavours and sensations. Hopefully, it’s perfectly balanced.”

Claire took to her Instagram and shared multiple pictures of the preparation of the royal check.
