In celebration of Queen Elizabeth II’s Platinum Jubilee, Marble Arch Partnership joined forces with the Hard Rock Hotel to hold a Junior Jubilee Platinum Pudding Competition for the children of Hampden Gurney CE Primary School.
Pupils hold up their cupcakes ready for a royal makeover.
In May 2022, approximately 30 Year 5 pupils headed to the Hard Rock, where they were provided with cupcakes and brownies alongside red, white and blue icing, and tasked with creating the most regal dessert designs in just 30 minutes.
Designs underway...
Designs complete.
Whilst Hard Rock’s judging panel assessed the creations, children were given a tour of the hotel’s collection of music memorabilia. Pupils impressed staff with their knowledge of musicians ranging from Elton John to Ozzy Osbourne, and the Hard Rock team shared the fascinating details behind each item.
Modern acts featured amongst old favourites in the memorabilia tour.
Following the tour, the junior cake artists behind the top 3 platinum pudding designs were given prizes and all students were presented with a certificate on Hard Rock’s stage.
Pupils take to the stage to celebrate their cake creations.
We’re so grateful to the Hard Rock team for welcoming local school pupils to celebrate the Platinum Jubilee, and we look forward to many more community events to come.
