With its Britannia-themed scratch cards and princess outfits, Carole and Mike Middleton’s online business Party Pieces has never fought shy of its Royal connections.
And now the website, for which the Duchess of Cambridge used to work, has selected its gift of the year - a clay doll that can be sculpted into a ‘Handsome Prince’.The item, called Sculpt Your Own Boyfriend, promises to fulfil any single girl’s dream.
According to text on the website: ‘If you’re finding that landing your dream guy is proving too difficult, too time-consuming and seemingly doomed to failure, all you need to do is get hold of this kit and learn to design a whole variety of gorgeous guys from the Millionaire to the Movie Star to the Handsome Prince.’
The 15in toy comes with five different colours of modelling clay, special modelling tools and a guide that teaches you to design 25 ‘types’ of boyfriend.
A picture of the same product on a different website shows the doll on bended knee with an engagement ring in a box.
However, this picture was omitted from the product description on the Party Pieces website.
Mysteriously, the original blurb on the website accompanying the photograph of the doll has recently been removed. Now there is only a paragraph of text, with no mention of a ‘handsome prince’.
