The video revisits the memorable moment when the Prince and Princess of Wales visited Borough Market and stepped behind the counter to try their hand at making crumbles from scratch. The footage offers a relaxed and informal look at the royal couple as they engage directly with staff and food preparation.
In the documentary, Humble Crumble founder Kim reflects on the brand’s journey, explaining how a simple homemade crumble—originally created as a school project—eventually developed into a successful business. Today, it attracts long queues at one of London’s most popular and historic food destinations.
Borough Market itself, known for its centuries-old heritage and strong support for independent traders, provided a fitting setting for the royal visit.
During their time at the market, William and Kate explored various stalls and took part in several hands-on activities. They were seen serving coffee at the social enterprise Change Please, learning piping techniques while making meringues, and meeting local artisan producers such as Trethowan Brothers, who are well known for their award-winning cheeses.
Rather than simply observing, the royal couple actively participated in the experience, interacting with vendors, asking questions, and sharing light-hearted moments. Members of the team described them jokingly as temporary “trainees,” highlighting the relaxed and engaging nature of the visit.
