What is Cake: The Marie Antoinette Playlist about?
Marie Antoinette’s reign was blighted by gossip and scandal. But when she is implicated in a crime to defraud the crown jewelers of a diamond necklace, it is not just her reputation at stake, but the monarchy and France itself.
Cake: The Marie Antoinette Playlist gives a different insight into the sweet-toothed ruler, retelling the story that sparked a revolution, and gave us one of history’s most iconic lines.
