Prince William and Kate Middleton’s youngest son Louis, two, is said to be ‘obsessed’ with the baking queen, much to William’s reported amusement.

According to The Sun, the youngster loves the Very Chocolate Cake, Plum Crumble and fruit scone recipes by the celebrity chef, 85.

In December Kate revealed that one of Prince Louis’s first words was ‘Mary’ because the Royal household is stocked with Mary Berry’s cook books.

Speaking to the Sun, an insider said: ‘Prince Louis likes nothing better than to check on Mary Berry cookbooks.

‘He loves the pictures, points out all the things he wants to eat, with The Very Chocolate Cake, Plum Crumble seeming to be hot favourites, and fruit scones being a must.

‘Whenever he sees Mary on the television, he whoops and claps his hands.’

During a Christmas special with Mary Berry last year, the Duchess of Cambridge, 38, candidly discussed how Louis conjured the words of The Great British Bake Off star’s name after discovering a collection of cookbooks nestled on her kitchen shelves at home.

The BBC show, A Berry Royal Christmas, saw Mary take to the kitchen with Kate and husband Prince Williams in order to prepare a series of festive treats for charity staff.   

Speaking to the baking expert, Kate said: ‘One of Louis’ first words was ”Mary”, because right at his height are all my cooking books in the kitchen bookshelf.

‘And children are really fascinated by faces, and your faces are all over your cooking books and he would say ‘That’s Mary Berry’ … so he would definitely recognise you if he saw you today.’
