Commemorative royal wedding plates don’t have to come from the back pages of weekend supplements, have “real gold” embossing or be available to buy in six “easy” installments.
Instead, embrace the kitsch with YO! Sushi’s limited edition kitten bride and groom plate, introduced especially to mark the wedding of the year.Wills and Kate are affectionately portrayed as loved-up lucky kittens, standing in front of a Union Jack with the date of their nuptials clearly displayed.
From the 29th April, a plate will be available to buy for just £2.50 (payment in installments will not be available). Just 2,000 of these highly collectable pieces of post-modern art have been commissioned and all proceeds will go to the Help for Heroes charity, which seeks to rehabilitate wounded British soldiers – a cause close to Prince William’s heart.
In addition, a special sushi dish has been created in honour of the happy couple. The smoked salmon, cream cheese and cucumber sushi ‘sandwich’, is priced at £2.50 and served without a hint of irony, although at this stage it is unclear whether Buckingham Palace will be serving the dish at the official reception. This exclusive sushi dish will be available a week before the wedding, from 22nd April– again, all proceeds from sales will go to the same charity, so get in touch with your charitable side and buy both the sushi and the plate. Hurry while stocks last!
Available at all YO! Sushi restaurants nationwide. www.yosushi.com
