Carole Middleton marked her 65th birthday on Friday.
The owner of Party Pieces established in 1987, got an iced cake with a picture of herself holding one of the company’s inflatable light sabers printed on it and candles to mark her milestone age.
The company began working out of a studio in the family’s garden and grew two years later after flyers for the business were distributed with the Red House book club and Carole and husband Michael Middleton moved the company to a brand new headquarters in Hungerford, only to outgrow it soon after. In 1993, Party Pieces took over Childs Court farm in Yattendon, which was transformed from dilapidated barns and cattle sheds into a shiny new head office.
The photo was shared on Instagram and the caption read:
“We’ve set up the office for a very special 65th birthday! We think we did a good job, but how about you? Got a party set up you’re proud of? Share it with us! We’d love to see what you guys do with your party pieces! (Okay, we’re going to tuck into the party nibbles now, YUM!).”
The birthday cake was surrounded by a buffet of treats, including brownies, crisps, a quiche and a plate of fruit.
On her 64th birthday, Pippa Middleton threw a party at her Chelsea home for her mother. Carole spent Christmas with Pippa, Aurthur, their son and her husband James Matthews in St. Barts.
