“Happy Birthday - Magna Carta”

Forget the Magna Carta Tapestry – cake expert bakes an 800th Birthday Cake!

Coming up with a bright idea to celebrate a BIG birthday is never easy.

But to celebrate 800 years since the Magna Carta was sealed between King John and his barons in Runnymeade on 15 June 1215, Laura George of Cakeology in Raynes Park near Wimbledon has decided to bake a cake.

Not just any cake. The specially decorated cake for the 800th anniversary of the sealing of the Magna Carta appears set on a table of finest English oak.

The impressive scroll is inscribed with the famous words, ‘Magna Carta, Law Liberty Legacy, 15 June 1215’.

Finally, there is the Royal Seal confirming the historic agreement between King John and his most powerful barons.

The cake is destined to be enjoyed locally at a south London church Friendship Group when they will hold a banquet during which they will re-enact the royal ceremony to seal the Magna Carta.

There will also be communal singing of the specially adapted ‘The 12 Laws of 1215’ to the tune of ‘The 12 Days of Christmas’ (lyrics attached).

Sharing this unique Magna Carta cake will certainly encourage friendship.
