We all know and love cupcakes, and loaf cakes, but why not combine the both?! There is something special that I adore about mini loaf cakes, and I just want to keep on baking them over and over. I mix the cake mix like normal; beat the butter and sugar together, add the eggs and flour and lemon extract and mix, and then split between the cases. To be super neat, I used a piping bag, but you can obviously spoon the mix in as well.

Remember, nothing gives a royal welcome like a slice of fresh sponge cake and a cup of tea – or a glass of prosecco, if you’re so inclined!

However, I thought I would post a more bite size cake that would be cute for a table spread, and easier to serve! These mini lemon loaf cakes are ideal. Simple craft projects make the perfect addition to your coronation celebrations – your guests are guaranteed to be impressed by your efforts!” says Prima’s Craft Editor Imogen Cooper.The coronation takes place on Saturday 6 th May 2023 with celebrations expected to last until Monday 8 th May, an additional bank holiday in the UK for the occasion. For other decoration, I used fresh fruit such as strawberries, raspberries and blueberries and then a little sprinkling of freeze dried raspberries as well because they always make the best decoration. It’s the King’s coronation in a few weeks time, so it seems appropriate to start planning the celebrations. Street party? Watching it on TV? Having a lovely bank holiday? Well a few bakes will always be a popular idea.

Sift the flour and salt into the bowl, then fold it in gently using a large metal spoon. Do not beat the mixture at this stage. Add the milk and stir it through gently. Whichever colour theme you choose, bunting is the quintessential coronation party decoration. It’s great for decorating indoor and outdoor spaces, plus it’s easy enough to make your own from fabric ( watch our no-sew coronation bunting video) or create paper bunting for the big day. Paper chains are also super easy to make when it comes to coronation party ideas and a great way to get kids involved with the prep. You may want to go all out and host a screening party on the day itself when the ceremony is on TV. Alternatively, you could hold a coronation party or street party on another day of the long weekend. If you wanted a chocolate based cake, use my chocolate school cake as a base sponge. Or you can even jazz it up slightly and use my gin & tonic traybake– or even my chocolate orange traybake cake.
