The phrase "let them eat cake" is said to have been from Marie Antoinette during the French Revolution. Marie Antoinette was part of the royal family, but during the French Revolution, when her palace was raided and she was overthrown, it is believed that she said "let them eat cake," referring to the peasants of the country, who could not have before that eaten something as luxurious and fancy as cake. The peasants never received any cake, and it has not been proven that Marie Antoinette ever said that now famous line. Many historians believe it was very unlike her to say something like that and not realistic that she actually did.
After her fall from the castle, after the revolutionaries had usurped power, Marie Antoinette was sentenced to the guollitine, and died from that beheading.
