A unique slice of wedding cake from Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip’s 1947 nuptials sold for £2,200 at auction after being found in a suitcase in Scotland. The fruitcake, preserved in its original presentation box, was gifted to Marion Polson, a former housekeeper, as a thank-you for a wedding gift. Originally expected to sell for £500, the piece caught the attention of a bidder from China. Royal expert James Grinter highlighted its rarity, as it is the first complete slice sold, emphasizing the cake’s historical significance from a time of rationing in post-war Britain.
