Princess Elizabeth's Wedding Cake Draws Royal Inspectors

The C.W.A. cake ranked third, and the Australia cake drew praise from a Huntley and Palmers employee. The wedding breakfast room featured a four tier cake with royal, naval, and Girl Guides crests. Palace decorations and crowds added to the vivid scene.
