according to hi!chef Darren Watson said he learned from his research that Princess Kate’s favorite sweet is sticky toffee pudding, which Prince William verified and said: “Very good.”

Kate’s favorite dessert is a timeless classic – a traditional British treat that can be relatively easy to make.

Watson researched the royal family’s favorite desserts ahead of the prince’s visit and treated him to a chilled breakfast cake, said to be a favorite of both William and his grandmother, the late Queen Elizabeth.

After accepting the cake, Prince William said: “Thank you so much, that’s very sweet of you, any kind of sweet I take, I’m a fan of anything chocolate and anything sweet.”

hi! reports that the cake was the same recipe as the one served at William and Kate’s wedding in 2011.
