Because its my job to bring you all the weird news from around the world, it doesn’t mean I don’t get surprised every once in a while by the news I bring you – So, a couple(photo above) who have been married for 60 solid years still have their wedding cake, which was made in Aug, 1955…
According to UK Mirror:
Ann and Ken Fredericks have been married for 60 years after tying the knot in New York in 1955, and admit that they still have some of the original cake left.Would you eat a 00year old cake???
The dark fruit cake was made by Ann’s grandmother, especially for their marriage ceremony on August 19.
And now, each year, on their anniversary, Ann and Ken take out a little bit of the cake to enjoy alongside a bottle of Champagne.
The pair reckon the cake has never spoiled, and simply needs a drop of brandy every so often to keep it moist.
Ann, who lives with her husband in Satellite Beach, Florida, told Florida Today: “I have to say it’s dry, tastes a little dry but it tastes like cake.”
“Little bit of Brandy never hurt anybody.”
Mr Fredericks added: “Maybe that’s the reason we’ve been around so long.”
And according to the couple, there’s no secret to storing the cake either, it is simply put into a tin and placed in a kitchen cupboard
