The cake maker

Royal wedding guests will also enjoy a chocolate biscuit cake made by McVitie's Cake Company. The cake, which was personally requested by Prince William, will consist of dark chocolate, broken up tea biscuits, and some secret ingredients, the firm's cake designer, Paul Courtney (pictured), told the Associated Press.
