King Charles III Coronation: Limited Edition Food and Desert Releases

Limited Edition Treats for the Coronation ?

The Coronation of Kind Charles III is fast approaching and if you're like me, you will have noticed some new and exciting coronation themed doughnuts, cakes, sandwiches and more.? Take a look at my top picks that will be going straight into my basket...??

Krispy Kreme

Krispy Kreme's has unveiled three limited edition doughnuts just in time for the Kings Coronation. They have put a fresh new twist on some of King Charles III's favorite classic desserts. If you are attending the coronation, having a picnic or even sitting at home watching on tv you can enjoy a delicious, themed doughnut to really get into the spirit.??

The three new flavors include:??

Kings Trifle: This is a royal purple iced doughnut filled with a strawberry custard filling?and topped with a chocolate crown.

Berry Bakewell: Topped with traditional white icing and a cherry, this doughnut is filled with raspberry and almond kreme filling.??

Lemon Short bread: Dipped in smooth lemon icing, with a swirl of vanilla frosting and topped with shortcake biscuit pieces.?

These Doughnuts are available in their stores, in supermarkets and online. How delicious do they look? If you are looking to share, they even do a dozen box which also includes original glazed.??

Costa Coffee

To get into the spirit of the Coronation, Costa Coffee have released a new sandwich called The King of all toasties. (This both sounds and looks absolutely delicious.) This toasty is filled with roast chicken with a tasty blend of coronation-spice, bechamel sauce, apricots, mango chutney and sultanas in a coronation-spiced cheese-topped bread.? This is a great option if you are hoping to grab something quick to eat if you are watching the coronation or to pack in your picnic.

Creams

Creams have unveiled some new items onto their menu in celebration for the kings coronation. They have a limited edition ice cream and waffle, perfect for the unpredictable English weather. Something cold if it is sunny or a hot desert for the rain... it could go either way so its good to have tasty options.

The Kings Cone: A gold-sprayed, shimmering mountain of creamy vanilla soft serve, piled high on a waffle cone, finished with a jaunty chocolate crown and signature Creams wafer.

The Windsor Waffle: Which is packed with flavors of juicy mango, creamy coconut and oozing with white chocolate.?

You can get these deserts from the creams store themselves or order online for delivery.??

Waitrose

Waitrose have released a range of coronation products and my favorite has to be the Jack Russell style cake. This was inspired by the king's two Jack Russel dogs, Beth and Bluebell.?Similar to the well-known colin the caterpillar cake, this is a chocolate sponge rolled with chocolate flavored buttercream, covered in milk chocolate and hand finished with sugar paste and sugar decorations featuring a regal crown. Waitrose are also offering a King Coronation tray bake for those bigger celebrations. It's decorated with sugar paste crowns and Jack Russell faces. Waitrose will also be donating ￡1 from each sale to Battersea Dogs Home.?

Lola's Cupcakes

Lola's Cupcakes have come out with a 6 box of coronation themed cupcakes, and they look divine. The box includes a mix of six chocolate and vanilla cupcakes topped with chocolate and vanilla buttercream. They are decorated with milk chocolate crowns, edible petals, sugar paste royal decorations, edible gold paint, a milk chocolate truffle and gold pearls. The detail in these cupcakes is great to see and really captures the whole essence of the Coronation plus they look delicious. They also have on offer a King Charles Coronation cake, a union jack cake, free from coronation cakes and lots more.

Tyrrells

Tyrrells have come out with a new packet of crisps to celebrate the Kings Coronation; they have gone for coronation chicken flavor and the packet is decorated accordingly. A nice item to add to your picknick and to share.??

Burger King

Ahead of the Coronation, Burger King has announced they will be launching a coronation meal deal: Buy one and get one free on their chicken and vegan Royales. As a bonus treat you can ‘crown it’ and add extra bacon and cheese to any meal for ￡1. They will also be unveiling limited edition coronation crowns, so not only can you eat like a king you can look like one too.??

Donut Time

Donut time is celebrating the coronation with a 6 pack of doughnuts which are beautifully decorated and will brighten up any picnic or party you may be having, if you are working you could share these with your co-workers.

The doughnut flavours:

2x Lovely Jubbly: This is a ball shaped doughnut dipped in a vanilla glaze with the British flag piped on top with a white chocolate dusted crown, it is filled with a fruit jam.??

2x Street Party: Piped with vanilla buttercream and rolled in red, white and blue sprinkles!?

Cadburys & Fry

Cadburys and Fry have come together to create a limited-edition collectables range of chocolate bars to celebrate the Coronation of King Charles III. Cadburys Dairy Milk, Cadburys Bourneville, Frys's cream and Turkish delight bars will feature a regal crown. Sadly, no new flavors have been released, however these wrappers can be kept and will forever mark this occasion in history.??
