About this deal

I would recommend using fresh fruit for this cake as frozen berries will not look as nice and will thaw/leak in a weird way onto the cream. If you are worried, decorate the cake somewhat last minute before serving, but it does last a couple of days in the fridge. So, go classy, camp or dial it all the way up to kitsch! Give your Coronation party a festive feel that will shine all Bank Holiday weekend. Many of us will also be looking for decorations that we can keep as ways to remember this historic event too. Some brands have created special collections to do just that, including Fortnum & Mason and Emma Bridgewater. Both have created stunning limited edition ranges to celebrate and remember King Charles' III coronation. The collections are also great gift ideas if you're attending a street party this bank holiday, or just know someone who is a royal family fan. The event has been scheduled to coincide with the spring/summer season of 2023, marking 70 years since the Coronation of Queen Elizabeth II in 1953. This makes the celebrations all the more special for many. The ceremony itself is just one of many events which will take place over the bank holiday, with many more celebrations spread across the duration of the weekend. Read on to find out how you can get involved...

I wanted to make a cake that really would suit making and serving for any celebrations for King Charles coronation, and this one is perfect. It’s easy, delicious, light and fun to make! It’s a showstopper, but still easy to serve. The Coronation Equally, if you want to keep your decorations simple, we suggest creating your own hand-made coronation decorations such as paper chains, streamers and hanging paper balls. Also, why not take a look at our best coronation recipes for some tasty treats to enjoy over the bank holiday weekend too?If you wanted a chocolate based cake, use my chocolate school cake as a base sponge. Or you can even jazz it up slightly and use my gin & tonic traybake– or even my chocolate orange traybake cake. The new King will be blessed by the Archbishop, and receive the royal orb and sceptres, which we last saw removed from above the coffin of Queen Elizabeth II at her state funeral in September 2022. The Archbishop will then place St Edward’s Crown on the King’s head. This impressive ceremony will see many royal traditions upheld - with the Coronation service having remained almost the same for over a thousand years. The concert will showcase a world-class orchestra, as well as dancers and entertainers. Performing alongside these stars will be The Coronation Choir, a diverse cross-section of the community choirs and amateur singers from across the UK. This includes NHS choirs, Refugee choirs, LGBTQ+ singing groups and deaf signing choirs, representing the many faces and voices of the country. As I wanted this to be slightly different to the other traybake recipes on my blog already, and I really wanted to make something light and delicious, I used whipped cream. This consists of double cream, icing sugar and a little vanilla to flavour the cream, whipped to peaks and then spread and piped on. Make your own buttery shortbread by following our recipe, or use a shop bought favourite – choose round biscuits.

Alternatively, you can celebrate the Coronation at home or in your own venue. Gardens, pubs and clubs make great settings for Coronation events! Host a Coronation afternoon tea indoors, or to make the best of the British summertime, why not set up a marquee for a barbecue and lay out picnic blankets for a garden party on the grass outside.

Confirmation

When it came to the fruit for this coronation cake, it had to be quite particular due to the flag. I went for strawberries, raspberries and blueberries, all of which are starting to come into season when the coronation happens so it’s the perfect time to use them. These colourful chair sashes are another great way to decorate your street party. They’re really easy to make, too. You can obviously use a buttercream instead if you want – but I would avoid an icing like on the school cake as that may cause the fruit to run off slightly. A standard buttercream would be 175g unsalted butter mixed with 350g icing sugar. with many bakeries offering their own take on the royal treat. At The Cake Store we have created a very special range of coronation cakes for the Coronation of King Charles III.
