High Tea Party
Y. Angela-Duncan June 23, 2013
Recently I was asked to provide a dessert buffet and host a “High Tea”
to celebrate the 19th anniversary of a church group.
All details were taken into consideration.
The tables were covered with beautiful white Damask table linens that had Baroque patterns imprints.
The Victorian style High Tea table setting, included a Victorian “Country rose” cups and saucers set complete with teapots milk jugs & sugar bowls.
The table setting also included a collection of Cake-stands which ranged from 3-Tier cake stands to 5-Tiers. A few fresh flowers centerpieces also decorated the nice table setting.
Those same flowers were impregnated on the cups and saucers.
The white plates with their scrolled embossed edge accentuated the Golden under plate.
An array of fine desserts and French pastries adorned the tables!
There was a total of 15 items, including an edible Bread basket made of bread dough.
The entrees included:

Edible bread basket with a variety of assorted mini rolls

The guests were delighted by the diversity of entrees and tastes.
We received so much praise and compliments that it made me feel uncomfortable.
Some of the comments:
“We got overwhelmed by the beautiful and succulent French Patisserie”
“ I don’t want to be invited to any High Tea never-ever again!
I want to treasure the memories of this one forever! “
“I’ve been to High Teas but never experience such an array of fine desserts
And pastries”!
“I’m very happy I came, this is an experience of a life time for me.”
“Not one single item was common to us, everything we had were delicious and unknown to us?
