The Recipe For Victoria's Pink Fondant Fancies | Royal Upstairs Downstairs
At the time of her visit to Waddesdon Manor, Buckinghamshire, in 1890, an elderly Queen Victoria was approaching her 71st birthday. For her host, French-born Baron Ferdinand de Rothschild, the visit was a huge honour. With chef and food historian Ivan Day, Rosemary discovers how posh dining etiquette had changed dramatically during Victoria's lifetime.
From Elizabeth II to Cleopatra, Real Royalty peels back the curtain to give a glimpse into the lives of some of the most influential families in the world, with new full length documentaries posted every week covering the monarchies of today and all throughout history.

What a wonderful series. Combines history, antiques, haute cuisine & gossip together ❤
You should have the recipes made into a book so we can use them ☺️
I absolutely love this series, I don’t want it to end.
I’m so sad that this series is ending lol wish they would have done more episodes
Oh nevet let this series end....I just LOVE it!!
Tim, your imitation of women's voices are just too much! Very amusing. Thanks for the laugh and smiles. 😁
I'll miss this series when they get to Victoria's death. Maybe another queen, next time? Elizabeth?

I love the hosts, they are so jovial and appear to have a wonderful friendship!
My grandmother was Scottish and I loved eating at her hse. Boiled eggs 🥚 in the morning. Placed in my cute soldier egg cup, marmalade on toast and tea. I never liked Hagis, but loved grandmas Plum Pudding! Of course with the requisite custard sauce! Yum 🤤 yum!

Victoria wanted a seperate dining room from the Rosthschilds and their guests because society considered them nouveau-riche Jewish upstarts and she wouldn't give the impression that she approved of their lifestyle. The main reason for her visit was to see how he decorated his house.

You're not considering that period in time. The average life expectancy of a woman in the 1890s was about 48 and it was even lower in 1819 when she was born so *for that time* she WAS elderly.

@@BB-xe9oj "Average" is meaningless. So many children died before they were 10 that it brought the average way down. If a person could make it past childhood, they lived well past their 40s. But yes, at that time people still didn't live as long as we do today, so 71 would have been at the top end.

What difference does that make if the average is "meaningless"?!!! The average of anything is still the average, no matter the cause. Average is never meaningless. And as far as people living "well past their 40s, yeah, tell that to Prince Albert and at least 2 of he and Victoria's children.

@@BOB1974_ Good grief. You didn't read very carefully. Otherwise I don't know why YOU responded... First, why it's low is precisely why it's meaningless HERE. (Pardon my exclusion of ALL possible uses of a mathematical average.) Second, did you notice I removed children from the equation? (No, obviously.) In any statistical analysis, you have to choose the proper data set. If you're considering the average life span of an ADULT (which is what we're talking about here), then all the numbers on children need to be removed. If that's not clear enough, I could explain in more detail, but since you were so rude in your reply, I'm not going to bother. Back under your rock.

What is it with the Brits and their teeth? I know the Brits criticize Americans for being “obsessed” with teeth, but seriously, do you people really think it is OK to see someone with a gap toothed mouth of rotted teeth? Does that convey good health? I can’t watch this guy who has enough ego to dye his hair but leaves his teeth rotted and missing. Imagine his breath. 😣
