Signature at Ascot Grange Trio Serve up Platinum Pudding Fit for The Queen

A trio of Signature at Ascot Grange care home residents served up a winning dessert as part of Signature’s Platinum Pudding competition.

Jane Carr, Diana Thompson and Jessie Collins collaborated on their ‘Lizzy’s Legacy Cake’ in the form of a red, white and blue Victoria sponge cake with bells on for the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations, the winning entry in a competition which spanned across Signature Senior Lifestyle’s 36 luxury care homes across London and the south-east.

The winning cake consisted of three tiers and adorned in the three union jack colours of blue, white and red. Strawberries were cut into halves and used to decorate the exterior with icing sugar lightly dusted on top of the cake for effect. In addition, whole strawberries and blueberries were placed on the top and bottom.

Amazingly, the winning entry was promised to become the official pudding for the Signature Street Party Picnic Menu, so all Signature homes have now enjoyed their very own ‘Lizzy’s Legacy Cake’ during the Platinum Jubilee weekend.

Judge George O’Malley, Head of Customer Experience said: “We were very impressed by the level of skill all contestants demonstrated, the level of attention to detail was remarkable. A big congratulations to the 1st place winners and we applaud everyone who participated, we cannot wait to see the cakes produced next year.”
