Eggs – I used medium eggs, but if you have other sizes, weigh them in their shells and then match the other ingredients – get to as close to 400g as possible. We've rounded up the coronation-themed craft kits that are perfect for every skill level and craft interest. There are kits to make street party decorations for beginner crafters, ideas of projects to work on while you're watching the coronation ceremony, and longer and more complex makes with really breathtaking results. There are also loads of kids coronation kits, too, from favourites including Etsy and Baker Ross. Whichever colour theme you choose, bunting is the quintessential coronation party decoration. It’s great for decorating indoor and outdoor spaces, plus it’s easy enough to make your own from fabric ( watch our no-sew coronation bunting video) or create paper bunting for the big day. Paper chains are also super easy to make when it comes to coronation party ideas and a great way to get kids involved with the prep.
Sift the flour and salt into the bowl, then fold it in gently using a large metal spoon. Do not beat the mixture at this stage. Add the milk and stir it through gently. I tend to use slightly more cake mix per portion compared to a cupcake, as I find they are slightly bigger than a cupcake. I use these mini loaf casesand they are just perfect.You may want to go all out and host a screening party on the day itself when the ceremony is on TV. Alternatively, you could hold a coronation party or street party on another day of the long weekend. Available online and in stores from today (17 April), Tesco’s new coronation range aims to help its shoppers plan a ‘celebration fit for royalty’. And if you're planning a street party, why not make some decorations of your own? The coronation celebrations are the perfect opportunity to get crafty! Follow our step-by-step guides to make lovely coronation bunting (which doesn't require any sewing!) and paper fan decorations which will brighten up any tablescape. Plus, why not watch the coronation in style with one of our paper crowns fit for a king.
Strawberries made the main cross of the flag, with the raspberries doing the other part. I then used blueberries to fill in the rest of the flag on top of the cream – and look at how pretty it its! The little cases are so cute, and they are a self contained portion of cake that you can simply place onto a large flat baking tray, portion the cake mix into the cases, and bake.
Use red, white and blue, or whatever papers you have at home. It’s a great one for using up odd pieces of wrapping paper, too. I mix the cake mix like normal; beat the butter and sugar together, add the eggs and flour and lemon extract and mix, and then split between the cases. To be super neat, I used a piping bag, but you can obviously spoon the mix in as well.
For the frosting, to fit the lemon theme a bit more, I did a lemon buttercream frosting. I love a light lemon buttercream, and when you make a super whipped buttercream frosting it is glorious. Beat the butter for a few seconds in a large mixing bowl to soften it, then add the caster sugar. Beat well until light and fluffy, using a hand-held electric mixer or wooden spoon. Add and beat the eggs one at a time, beating well between each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract. Whenever you decide, we have all the expert coronation-themed party ideas you need for hosting a royally good get together. The good news is you don’t need to spend a fortune or have spent weeks planning to put on a brilliant celebration that friends and family will love. We all know and love cupcakes, and loaf cakes, but why not combine the both?! There is something special that I adore about mini loaf cakes, and I just want to keep on baking them over and over.

If you'd rather be a bit more individual when it comes to your music choices, put your own playlist together ahead of time. You could ask guests to suggest songs and create your own coronation party playlist. On the day, they could put requests on pieces of paper that they then pop in a hat (or crown!) for the home DJ to play. These little beauties are cute, fun, and so easy to make. They are perfect for any street party or celebration for the coronation in a few weeks time, enjoy! Coronation For the decoration, you can have some fun. I purposely used the same piping tip but decorated my mini coronation loaf cakes in different ways to give a fun look, but anything works. I find it best to put all of my frosting into a large piping bag and then decorate away.
