Morrisons has announced it will be selling a corgi cake, inspired by the Queen’s beloved pet pooches to celebrate the Platinum Jubilee in the summer.
The Queen’s corgi, Candy, recently made headlines when she stole the show by interrupting the monarch at a memorabilia viewing at Windsor Castle but it’s the Morrisons version that has set tongues wagging on social media.
The cake has been named ‘Clarence’ by customers following a competition on Morrisons Facebook page that attracted thousands of comments and suggestions.
The cake is a chocolate covered swiss roll, and decorated with red, blue and white sprinkles to celebrate the Queen’s 70th anniversary on the throne. Clarence has a sweet edible face and boots with a Union Jack crown to top it all off.
Morrisons Clarence the Corgi cake will join Morris the Caterpillar on shelves in stores nationwide on the 21st May, ahead of the thousands of street parties planned across the country to celebrate the Platinum Jubilee.
It serves 12 and costs just £6, making it perfect to share with friends and family.
Rachel Fish, Cake Creator at Morrisons, says: “We’ve created this special cake to pay tribute to the Queen, as the country celebrates her Platinum Jubilee this summer. We had great fun coming up with names for the cake but think Clarence, as chosen by our customers, is a fitting tribute."
Morrisons previously created a replica of Harry & Meghan’s Royal Wedding Cake in 2018 and a Gingerbread Prince to celebrate Harry’s first Father’s Day - which both proved popular with customers.
