41-Year-Old Slice Of Princess Diana’s Wedding Cake Stored At Ripleys Warehouse

In February 1981, Diana Spender wed Charles, Prince of Wales, becoming the iconic Princess Di and changing the world in the process.

To the shock of many people, Ripley’s Believe It Or Not warehouse contains a couple of slices of wedding cake from Princess Diana and Prince Charles’ wedding in 1981, making it a literal slice of history. This extremely stale slice of cake still looks gorgeous, but we wouldn’t recommend eating it.

One is nicely wrapped in ribbon and protection and says “Lady Diana Spencer” on it. The other, which is still relatively intact, was displayed in this YouTube video unboxing the preserved fruit cake.

When you think of a traditional wedding cake, you might think of a towering vanilla cake covered in fluffy white icing. However, this cake is a fruitcake, which is the traditional cake for royal weddings.
