Queen Victoria married Prince Albert on 10 February 1840. According to royal sources, the wedding cake weighed three hundred pounds, or about one hundred and thirty-six kilograms. A preserved fragment or historical lithograph is an artifact rather than evidence that old cake is safe to eat: neither recipe alcohol nor an auction price establishes that. The specific 2016 sale for 1500 pounds was not verified here against a primary lot record.
