King Charles fans have ‘sausage finger’ sandwiches on their coronation menu
Give ’em a hand.
Royal fans are devising creative dishes to celebrate Saturday’s coronation of King Charles III — including a snack honoring the 74-year-old monarch’s so-called “sausage fingers.”
The “sausage finger” sandwich boasts sliced cherry tomato cufflinks and even a cheese signet ring.
“Just woke up to this absolute beauty mum spent most of the night creating, pretty sure it’s the most amazing thing I’ve ever seen. He even has a ring on one of his sausage fingers!” a Twitter user bragged Friday. “We’ll be making our way to London today to camp out over night hoping to get a glimpse tmrw.”
Fans can’t get enough of the king’s infamous sausage fingers — his digits have been roasted online since he took the throne in September following the death of his mother, Queen Elizabeth II.
“Sausage fingers” was even the seventh most-searched term on Google at one point.
Keen observers have noticed the king’s hands are nowhere to be seen in portraits shared before his coronation — joking that Charles has been “bullied” into hiding his fingers for photos.
Sausage finger sandwiches aren’t the only food fit for a king’s coronation.
A Glasgow-based pizzeria rolled out a special pie for the occasion.

It’s shaped like Charles’ face with onion hair and cheese facial features — complete with oversized ears — and topped with a crown made of fries and jalapeños.
“To commemorate our new monarch we have produced our King Charlie Pizza,” Villaggio Pizza trumpeted on Facebook. “It’s a 1 off and not available to order unfortunately but we do have all our usual great food.”
Meanwhile, a bakery based in Cheshire, called Baked in Banbury, made a sculpture of the king out of cake, as well as a corgi cake in honor of the late queen’s love of corgis.
Little Breads sandwich and coffee shop got into the spirit with a cookie featuring a crown topping a Freddo chocolate biscuit.
The coronation is set for Saturday at Westminster Abbey in London.
The event will start at 11 a.m. GMT and 6 a.m. EST.
Fans in the US can tune in live and online for the two-hour televised ceremony followed by the coronation concert featuring Katy Perry, Lionel Richie, and several other musical guests.
