This week The Queen braved torrential rain to visit the South West as part of her Diamond Jubilee tour of the UK. There was excitement all round with a tour that took-in Sherborne Abbey, Salisbury Cathedral, Crewkerne and Ninesprings Country Park in Yeovil, where The Queen received a fruit cake baked by food and hospitality students at Yeovil College to mark the royal visit.

We can just imagine Her Majesty enjoying a steaming pot of tea and a big slice of delicious fruit cake on the royal train on the way home.  After seeing The Queen receiving the royal fruit cake we couldn’t help but open up one of our incredibly fruity cakes made by expert bakers – The Simply Delicious Cake Company – we do find any excuse to have one!
