Carole Middleton has
given the public a glimpse – and inspiration – into how she’ll be marking the
Queen’s upcoming Platinum Jubilee in June.
The Duchess of Cambridge’s
mother’s business, Party Pieces, has launched a special range to help
people celebrate the royal event.
Aptly called “A Great
British Party,” the collection has been specifically designed to
commemorate the Jubilee and features a mix of classic stripes and the iconic
Union Jack topped with English roses.
Carole’s website notes:
“Choose from beautiful bunting, celebratory cake stands and toppers and
stylish tableware. The collection is also eco-friendly and recyclable or
reusable, made from FSC-certified paper.”
Carole notes in her newsletter:
“You sort the nibbles; we’ll do the rest.”

A Great British Party Treat Stand that’ll ensure you can create a cake display
fit for a queen. The three-tiered stand, priced at £12, can hold an array of
treats from cupcakes to macaroons to slices of cake.

Personalized photo cake, from £12.99, Party Pieces
There’s also an option to
purchase a photo cake personalized with a photo and message of your choice. A
small cake that serves six child-sized portions is selling for £12.99 while a
large cake, for up to 20 child-sized portions, retails for £22.99. Personalized
cupcakes are also on offer.
And in terms of decoration,
bunting, balloons and banners are all up for grabs. Hardcore royal fans can
also invest in the A Great British Party Ultimate Bundle for £75 which includes
everything you could possibly need for a Jubilee party – including a helium
canister for blowing up your balloons.
