Title: Cake Box, unknown date [Go to resource]
Description: The label inside this box reads "Huntley & Palmers Banquet Cake. Dundee mixing, almond paste and sugar icing, ornaments on top. Approx. 4lbs 8/- each". An identical label is pasted on the front, but without the weight and the price. Clearly this cake was intended as a Christmas cake. The date of the box is unknown - the style of the box gives nothing away - though it must precede the decimalization of British coinage in 1971. In 1965 the Reading factory was still producing twenty-one kinds of cake.
