Queen Camilla's essential tea party snack has specific requirements - and it's all down to a surprising royal superstition

Queen Camilla hosts a tea party and treasure hunt for children supported by Dreams and Wishes.

Afternoon tea used to be a British institution and it still is for the Royal Family, though theirs is slightly more spectacular than most. We're talking moreish cakes and scones served on silver cake stands rather than a quick cuppa and a biscuit.
