Morrisons' Clarence the Corgi cake set to be Queen's Jubilee version of Colin the Caterpillar

With Queen Elizabeth II's Platinum Jubilee coming up, there's no doubt that many fans of the royal family will want to celebrate the monarch's 70 years in power in style. And while many will have headed to the checkouts to pick up Union Jack banners, bunting and flags well in advance - Morrisons have recently released a new product which is highly-sought after by those looking to do things a little differently.

Enter Clarence the Corgi - a brand new cake from the leading supermarket which pays tribute to Elizabeth II's top choice of dogs. The Queen's love of the breed is said to have stemmed from her childhood, with her father King George VI gifting her one of her own named Dookie in 1933.

Since then, she is believed to have owned in excess of 30 corgis throughout her tenure on the throne - all having interesting and exciting names like Monty and Linnet. At the time of writing, the Queen currently also has a pure-bred corgi known as Muick.
