Ιδού η ξεχωριστή συνταγή για τα γενέθλια σοκολατένια cupcakes της βασίλισσας Ελισάβετ

Αν και φέτος τα γενέθλια της βασίλισσας Ελισάβετ δεν θα εορταστούν με μια μεγαλοπρεπή δεξίωση και εκλεκτούς καλεσμένους, όπως κάθε χρόνο, λόγω της πανδημίας, αυτό δεν σημαίνει ότι το Παλάτι δεν της επιφύλασσε εκπλήξεις.

Για τον εορτασμό των γενεθλίων της, μάλιστα, το Παλάτι μοιράστηκε δημόσια την ξεχωριστή συνταγή και κάλεσε τον κόσμο να ακολουθήσει τα βήματα προκειμένου να δημιουργήσει τα περίφημα βασιλικά cupcakes και να μοιραστεί τις δημιουργίες στο Instagram.
