Classic choice
During a trip to the Duchy College in Cornwall in October 2024, Prince William let slip what dessert his wife, the Princess of Wales really enjoys.
After visiting the college’s criminology department, William toured the establishment’s student and staff hub, Sam’s Café, where he was presented with one of his favourite cakes, the refrigerated breakfast cake, which formed one of the layers of William’s wedding cake. The dessert was also a favourite of the late Queen’s and it consists of chocolate, butter, sugar, cream and biscuits.
The cake was presented to William by chef Darren Watson, who had been undertaking a lot of research in order to uncover the desserts loved by the royals. When Darren told William that he had discovered that Kate’s favourite pudding was a sticky toffee pudding, William confirmed this, saying: “Very good.”
For those unaware of what this British classic dessert is, let me explain. The moist sponge cake is naturally sweetened with dates and covered in a rich toffee sauce, usually served alongside vanilla ice cream or warm custard. A crowd-pleasing classic, this traditional choice rarely divides opinion so Princess Kate certainly picked a winner!
