Princess Charlotte loves eating olives and making cheese sauce from scratch
She has a sophisticated palette for a three-year-old…
Princess Charlotte absolutely loves eating olives and making homemade cheese sauce with her brother Prince George, according to proud mum Kate.
Princess Charlotte may only be three-years-old, but we are sure that as part of the royal family she’s already tasted some of the finest foods the world has to offer.
We already knew that Princess Charlotte and Prince George loved to make their own pizzas and were huge fans of Italian cuisine.
But now it’s been revealed that Charlotte has a new favourite food to add to her list - olives!
Olives can instantly divide people into the love them or hate them camp and it appears Princess Charlotte is firmly for the salty little snacks.
Kate revealed that "Charlotte loves olives" while visiting the children of Lavender Primary School and also said she likes to get Charlotte and George cooking from scratch.
