We hope that all Mothers, Grandmothers, Aunties, Sisters, and Daughters had a lovely Mother’s Day last Sunday. We had a wonderful get together with our extended family to celebrate Mothers Day and my parents 51st Wedding Anniversary
To make the afternoon extra special, we went with a High Tea theme – it was a good excuse to get out our cake stands, and my Grandmothers Vintage Tea Set.
Vintage Tea Set used to Hold Chocolates |
It looked pink and girly – just what we were after! ( I photographed the table before our visitors arrived – and then forgot to take more photos of the table after the food was laid out).
White serving platters were lined with pink gingham waxed paper to fit with the pink theme. Pink flowers cut from vellum were scattered on the table cloth.
We even found some pink and white M & M’s to match!
Some of the savoury food included:
Red Curry Tuna Tarts |
Herbed Smoked Salmon Tartlets |
Some of the sweet treats included:
Vanilla Macarons |
Chocolate Marble Cupcakes |
Cheesecake Cups |
