Mary Berry helps bake winning Platinum Pudding for One Show jubilee special
The winning trifle was chosen from nearly 5,000 entries.
Baking royalty Dame Mary Berry has shared tips on how to make the winning Platinum Pudding in honour of The One Show’s jubilee special.
Jemma Melvin’s lemon Swiss roll and amaretti trifle beat 5,000 desserts to become the official pudding of the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations.
The trifle, inspired by the 31-year-old copywriter’s grandparents – and the Queen – will become part of British royal food history, following in the footsteps of coronation chicken and Victoria sponge.
The trifle was crowned on BBC One’s The Jubilee Pudding: 70 Years In The Baking after the judges, including Dame Mary and Monica Galetti, came to a unanimous decision.
Ms Melvin, from Southport, Merseyside, previously revealed she had only decided to enter the competition because a friend suggested it to her, and called the experience “surreal”.
The One Show is marking the Platinum Jubilee with two special programmes hosted by Jones and Ronan Keating, beginning on June 2.
