Yummy Piece Of Royal Memorabilia Sold for £1,000

A piece of the wedding cake baked for Prince Charles and Princess Diana's wedding has been sold for £1,000 this week at a sale in Glous.

Moyra Smith, who at the time of the wedding was a cleaner at the Queen Mothers residence, Clarence House was given a slice of the cake form a huge piece sent to the Queen Mother. Mrs Smith carefully wrapped the cake in cling film and stored it in her attic. Her husband put it up for sale thinking it would be a prize piece of someone's collection. Along with the cake is a thank you letter from Charles and Diana for Moyra's contribution to their wedding present and a bottle of beer brewed in 1982 to celebrate the birth of Prince William, Charles and Diana's first son.
