YOU Magazine Fashion Beauty Celebrity Health Life Relationships Horoscopes Food Interiors Travel Home Food Meghan’ s 38th birthday carrot cake supported an amazing cause By You Magazine - August 12, 2019 On 4th August, Meghan Markle celebrated her 38th birthday – reportedly a low-key affair, which the Duchess of Sussex spent celebrating with her nearest and dearest in private. But now one small yet meaningful detail has been made public: her birthday cake. Journalist Omid Scobie, who works for Good Morning America, shared a picture of Meghan’s birthday cake on Twitter, giving us a little snippet of insight into how the royals marked the special occasion. Getty Images ‘Thanks so much to Alice Williams and the awesome team at @LuminaryBakery in London for letting us join them last weekend as they created Duchess Meghan’s beautiful carrot birthday cake,’ Omid wrote, alongside a picture of the three-tiered carrot cake, topped off with buttercream icing, sprigs of thyme, candied oranges and a personalised message to Meghan herself. The cake is undeniably stunning, but there’s also a special meaning behind it, as it was produced by Luminary Bakery, a registered charity in East London that offers opportunity to women who have faced social and economic disadvantage. ‘We use baking as a tool to take women on a journey to employability and entrepreneurship, equipping them with transferrable skills for the working world,’ the social enterprise explains on its website. We offer courses, work experience and paid employment within our bakery, empowering women to build their career.’ Thanks so much to Alice Williams and the awesome team at @LuminaryBakery in London for letting us join them last weekend as they created Duchess Meghan’s beautiful carrot birthday cake? @GMA story on the bakery and their incredible work here: https://t.co/1l9Uhww1rr pic.twitter.com/TVvtZhybEx - Omid Scobie (@scobie) August 9, 2019 Meghan highlighted the project as one of her ‘Forces for Change’ in the September issue of Vogue, for which she was guest editor – but even so, the team were still taken aback to be asked to bake for her birthday. ‘When I applied for this job I did not expect that I’d be making a cake for Duchess Meghan Markle,’ staff member Caoimhe Bennett told Good Morning America. ‘That was pretty crazy.’ ‘To have someone like the duchess acknowledge us and champion us is incredible,’ Luminary Bakery’s founder, Alice Williams, added. ‘I think it will open a lot of doors for us. There’s so many more women that need opportunities.’ RELATED ARTICLESMORE FROM AUTHOR Kids can eat for free at these restaurants during October half-term How to make the viral negroni sbagliato with prosecco at home 7 Halloween recipes with serious hex factor Popular in Food Gabriela Peacock 14-day plan Anytime baked eggs May 23, 2021 Joe Wicks’ maple-glazed chicken thighs with Asian slaw June 6, 2021 Mary Berry is returning to TV screens for a brand new June 15, 2021 Eleanor Maidment My summer taste notes July 4, 2021 Uyen Luu’ s sticky mustard marmalade ribs July 25, 2021 Annie Bell’ s white peach bellinis recipe August 8, 2021 M& S has launched a new crunchy Caramilk-inspired golden chocolate spread August 24, 2021 Deliciously preserved pickle and jam recipes September 19, 2021 Gordon Ramsay’ s bang bang cauliflower October 3, 2021 Wow right now Clodagh McKenna’ s speedy family dinners October 24, 2021 Popular CategoriesFood2704Life2496Fashion2240Beauty1738Celebrity1261Interiors684 Sign up for YOUMail Thanks for subscribing Please check your email to confirm (If you don't see the email, check the spam box) Fashion Beauty Celebrity Life Food Privacy & Cookies T&C Copyright 2022 - YOU Magazine.
