Having served as a chef to Queen Elizabeth II, Princess Diana, and Princes William and Harry over his illustrious 15-year career, Darren is well-versed in Royal culinary traditions. In a previous conversation with TODAY.com , Darren explained: "I've certainly never seen packaged food with any of the Royal babies.
Why would they buy packaged food when the Queen has 20 personal chefs?" Reflecting on his time in the Royal kitchens, Darren recalled crafting the first solid foods for William and Harry, involving steamed pears and apples from the Royal Sandringham estate, meticulously pureed and sieved to remove any lumps. "As they got older, you'd have one chef in the kitchen doing the chicken, one doing the veg, and then it would all be blended together; it was a major operation cooking for them," he said. The chef reminisced about preparing chocolate biscuit cake, made famous at William and Kate's wedding, and peanut butter and jelly muffins, inspired by the princes' visit to Disney World.
However, as Darren pointed out, the boys didn't always have the luxury of choosing their meals. If the children were in charge, the Royal menu would likely feature amore pizza, burgers and chicken nuggets, according to the Mirr.
