A slice of cake from the Queen and Prince Philip's wedding has sold this morning.
The unappetising-looking slice, which remains in its original box, auctioned for £500 ($763) at Gorringes in the UK.
A woman whose father attended the nuptials consigned the fruit cake to the sale.
The Queen and Prince Philip married on November 20, 1947 and had a nine-foot, four-tier cake.
 Tempting? The cake's dishevelled appearance didn't prevent a bid of £500. It's thought to still be edible. |
