Last week I delved into the two ingredients that would star in the wedding cake made in honor of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle: lemon and elderflower. This week, I thought I was share some pictures of the simple, rustic wedding cake! The cake was a simple sponge cake, with elderflower and lemon syrup (the elderflower syrup was created at Sandringham one of the Queen's estates!). It was filled with fresh lemon curd, and iced with an elderflower Swiss Meringue Buttercream, and topped with fresh flowers, including peonies. Below you will find a cool video posted on The Royal Family twitter page; it is a Q&A with the cake's creator Claire Ptak.
