Christmas High Tea...


I love a good High Tea.

This week I've had the pleasure of hosting a Christmas High Tea for 14 lovely young ladies, friends of my young daughter.

They're a gorgeous crowd of girls, and quite sophisticated for 10 and 11 year olds.

So when planning a Christmas gathering for them, it was High Tea or nothing.

Our menu included ribbon sandwiches with egg and lettuce and herbed chicken breast, miniature caramel tarts, sponge cake with passionfruit icing or strawberries and cream, and these pretty little lemon meringue nests. Really just a little hollow meringue, filled with home made lemon curd and topped with a sliver of strawberries.


More recently, my sons girlfriend rustled up cookies and cream cheesecakes, lemon meringue tarts, macadamia nut slice and butterfly cakes for a special birthday.

I love a good High Tea....

What's on your Tray of Bliss today?
