The Queen has launched her own brand of posh washing up liquid at a whopping £14.99 a bottle – after it was revealed she loves doing the dishes.
Her Majesty has started selling bottles of washing up liquid at her Sandringham estate in Norfolk – for almost ten times the cost of Fairy Liquid.
The Natural Dish Wash, which has the scent of ‘coastal walks,’ has the Royal Sandringham Estate logo on the front of the 500ml bottle.
A label on the bottle states: ‘Inspired by a shared passion for protecting our environment, we have collaborated with Norfolk Natural Living, to create our dish wash just 10 miles from the estate, using the finest botanical ingredients.’

For the scent, the Queen chose a ‘coastal walk’ scent and botanical ingredients for her cleaning product
It comes after royal expert and author Harry Mount recently recalled a former royal courtier telling him how the Queen washed up after a shooting lunch at Wood Cottage on the Sandringham Estate, where Prince Philip spent his retirement.
Former royal butler Paul Burrell also revealed the Queen likes to wash up in her Marigolds when she stays on her estate in Balmoral.
The washing up liquid comes just a month after the Queen launched her own brand of dog perfume which is on sale at her Sandringham estate in Norfolk.
Her Majesty, who is an ardent dog lover, created a special Royal cologne for pampered pooches, which comes with a price-tag of £9.99.

She collaborated with nearby company, Norfolk Natural Living, to make the Happy Hounds Dog Cologne, which has the essence of ‘Coastal Walks.’

The sleek 200ml bottles, which cost £9.99, feature the Sandringham Royal Estate crown symbol.

The Queen is believed to have kept more than 30 corgis throughout her reign and currently has two corgis and one dorgi
‘To use: Spritz a generous amount into the palm of your hand and smooth over your dog’s freshly washed and dried coat to help rid any unwanted odours and keep them smelling fresh.’
The Queen is believed to have kept more than 30 corgis throughout her reign and currently has two corgis and one dorgi.
Her dorgi, Candy, is now over 10 years old and her corgi, Muick was one of two dogs given to her during Prince Philip’s illness.
After her second corgi, Fergus, died, Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice are believed to have surprised her with another corgi for her birthday last June.
Also among the Queen’s collection of merchandise is honey produced by bees at Sandringham – for £14.99 a jar.
The 454g jars have left honey fans buzzing with excitement and are flying off the shelves at the gift shop on the estate in north Norfolk.
The honey is being collected from hives placed around fields and hedgerows at the Royal family’s rural retreat which is the private property of the Queen.
One shopper from Suffolk who bought a jar of the Sandringham honey said: ‘It is rather expensive – but it tastes absolutely delicious so it is worth it.’
It is believed that the hives were introduced as part of the recent move, pioneered by Prince Charles, to make the 20,000-acre estate fully organic.

A ban on the use of pesticides on the estate and the increased planting of wild flowers is thought to have led to a booming population of bees.
The Sandringham Estate Honey is being produced by Norfolk bee keeper Leigh Goodsell from some of his hives which he keeps and maintains on the Queen’s land.
Labels on the jars say the honey is made by bees which harvest nectar ‘from the avenues of pleached Lime trees and wild flowers including Phacelia, Clover and Blackcurrants.’
