First Course: Savories - Bottom Tier
Classic cucumber tea sandwiches: spread cream cheese on thin slices of bread, layer with thinly sliced cucumbers, sprinkle with salt and pepper, then cut into small, bite-sized sandwiches.
Turkey & herbed cream cheese sandwiches: spread herbed cream cheese on slices of bread, layer with thinly sliced turkey, then cut into small, elegant tea sandwiches.
Egg salad sandwiches on croissants: spread creamy egg salad onto buttery croissant halves, then top with fresh greens for delicious tea sandwiches.
Second Course: Scones - Middle Tier
Selection of scones: blueberry, cherry, or chocolate chip would be great choices for summer!
If you have guests with food allergies or special dietary needs (gluten or dairy allergy, sugar-free, etc.), we highly recommend checking out the Bee Well Bakery LLC shop on Etsy (their second Etsy store is here, and it is the same bakery). Their baked goods are SO delicious, shipped and delivered quickly, and meet many special dietary needs. When you order from Bee Well Bakery LLC, use the discount code BLOOMING10 at checkout (in either of their
Etsy shops) to save 10% on your order!
Be sure to include assorted jams and clotted cream (or crème fraiche) to serve with the scones.
Third Course: Sweets - Top Tier
