Dessert, theatre-style 🎭🧁

As we say goodbye to the 's sixth run of Hamlet, we're looking back at this incredible dessert station from its press night.

Our chefs baked hundreds of mini cakes for the event, including lemon drizzle, carrot and coffee & chocolate, but it was this skull cake cooked up by a partner of one of the cast members that took centre stage!
