I try to believe in as many as 6 impossible things before afternoon tea 💭☕️🍰
I recently tumbled down the rabbit hole and ended up in the fantasy land that is @sandersonsocial to indulge in their new 100% vegan Alice in Wonderland “Mad Hatters” afternoon tea ♠️♥️♣️♦️🌱 As I’m already quite little, I didn’t need to drink the shrinking potion which was super convenient 💁🏼♀️
In Chapter 1, Tweedle Dum & Tweedle Dee (aka @jolley_chris & I) 👫 were treated to bubbles and tea 🥂☕️ We chose the Alice black tea with hints of blackcurrant, vanilla, caramel, citrus, bergamot, blue cornflowers & blue mallow flowers and the Mad Hatters green tea infused with passionfruit, guava & mango 🍵 .
In Chapter 2, the food arrived and we tucked into the savoury layer first 🥪 Chia seed wraps with wild rice, bean salad & quinoa, Mushroom duxelle and avocado sandwich, Grilled vegetable, tomato and avocado super seed rolls and White Rabbit cucumber sandwiches 🐰 The mushroom was the stand out for me! 🍄 .
In Chapter 3, we moved onto the sweet treats 🍰 We tried the Queen of Hearts pecan, choc & coconut cookie 👸🏼the Dark Choc chessboard gateau 🔲 the Tweedle Dee orange and peanut butter cupcake 🍰 the Mad March Hare beetroot and almond Battenberg 🐇 the Choc & Pistachio Blue Caterpillar 🐛 the Lychee & Bergamot pâte de fruits, the Mad Hatters lost orange carrot meringue 🎩 the Alice’s exotic fruits “Drink Me” potion 🍹 and OF COURSE, the warm scones served with strawberry jam 🤤 To be totally honest, every single sweet was absolutely divine and I advise you to get down there! 😍
Anyway, I must dash as I’m late, I’m late, for a very important date ⏰ Remember to stay bonkers, because all the best people are! 🤪
