Pastry chef Claire Ptak posted the words "and so it begins" on her Instagram account on Tuesday alongside a photograph of six crates of lemons.
The couple have turned to Ptak, owner of the small Violet Bakery in east London, to make the cake, which will be covered with buttercream and decorated with fresh flowers.
