Queen Elizabeth’s third day of her annual Royal Week in Scotland was certainly sweet!
As part of the visit, the Queen was gifted with a jar of local honey — a reversal of another royal outing last week whenKate Middletonoffered tastes of her home-cultivated honeyto children at a hands-on learning session at the Natural History Museum in London last week.
“This came specially from my beehive,” the Duchess of Cambridge, 39, told the schoolchildren of her treat from Anmer Hall in Norwich. She then asked, “Does it taste like honey from the shops? Does it taste like flowers?”

At Wednesday’s outing in Scotland, the Queen, 95, also joined a group of children around a fire pit but politely demurred when she was offered a marshmallow, saying, “No, that’s very kind of you,” according to areport.
This week marked the Queen’s first trip to Scotland since the global pandemic triggered lockdowns in the U.K. in March 2020, as well as her first visit since the death ofPrince Philipthis past April.
Prince Williamjoined her on Monday for another sampling of local flavors,sipping on famed national soda Irn Bruwhen the pair opened a new A. G. Barr facility near Glasgow.
