Tea Travels!™... A Buffet Tea for Easy EntertainingExcerpt from AFTERNOON TEA - TIPS, TERMS and TRADITIONS by Ellen Easton ©2006-2020 - All Rights ReservedCheck out more of Ellen Easton's Tea Travels™ articles and recipes.Learn about the History of English High Tea and more delicious Afternoon Tea Recipes.It is very simple to have a buffet tea at home.When planning your floral arrangements and decor, be mindful to choose scents that will not cause reactions to your guests. The flowers and decor are meant to complement your tea setting, not overpower the guests, nor interfere with the taste of the foods.While a white linen table cloth with matching 12-inch napkins is traditional, in our contemporary world, it is also appropriate to use whimsical cloths of various materials and designs.Set up opposite ends of the table with the tea cups and saucers, tea spoons, plates, napkins, sugar cubes, milk, and lemon slices.One end of the table will serve the hot tea. If room allows, serve one blend each, decanted, of a black, green or oolong and herbal infusion. By serving the tea decanted, there will be no need for tea strainers or slop bowls to remove the discarded tea leaves. The other end of the table will serve the hot coffee, with sugar cubes and milk/cream. Again, if room allows, offer your guests both regular and decaffeinated coffee.On a side table have a pitcher of cold, brewed iced tea with tall iced tea glasses.In the middle, on one side of the table, have serving trays, each containing a different type of savory and finger sandwich, crusts off.Balance the menu with no two breads or fillings duplicating one another. And for goodness sake, if you live in a southern state, do not forget the deviled egg tray!In the middle, on the other side of the table, have serving trays, each containing a different type of finger/bite size sweets. Lemon pound cake and brownies may be cut into bite-size servings.On either a side table or next to your savory trays, set up baskets of mini, bite-size, scones, muffins and slice-finger style fruit breads. You may also include cheese sticks. Place bowls of clotted cream or Devonshire cream and jam, with small serving spoons, and bowls of large strawberries adjacent to the breads and scones.Place coordinating service pieces next to or near the trays.You may use place cards, on the tables, to identify each item and tea served.Sherry, port, and champagne, if desired, may be served on trays or passed by the wait staff.Remember to keep the menu simple with easy to pick up “finger foods” that do not require utensils.A buffet tea needn’t be expensive, nor time consuming to prepare. There are many marvelous sources available by mail order and in your local supermarkets. All it takes for one to create a beautiful buffet tea party is imagination and a good guest list.TEA TRAVELS™ - Wishing You Happy TEA TRAVELS!™ Tea is the luxury everyone can afford!™ and Good $ense for $uccess are the trademarked property of Ellen Easton/ RED WAGON PRESSEllen Easton, author of Afternoon Tea~Tips, Terms and Traditions (RED WAGON PRESS), a lifestyle and etiquette industry leader, keynote speaker and product spokesperson, is a hospitality, design, and retail consultant whose clients have included The Waldorf=Astoria, Plaza Hotels and Bergdorf Goodman.

Have you all been able to tell I have become enamored with tea? I have. I always knew I liked it but, I really like it! I had a bag of lemons from the grocery and wanted to try a lemony dessert. I tried two lemon cakes the day I made this and one was a English recipe. The English recipe didn't turn out for me so I came up with a recipe I knew would work and that is Ina Garten's Lemon Pound Cake. I will share the recipe tomorrow. This sweet little teacup was made by Gracie's China. Having a refreshing pot of tea with a lemon cake for a new spring day. Such a lovely way to begin the season!

Today I want to show you how to turn a plain scone into a really pretty treat that looks fancy but is so easy! I used King Arthur Flour's recipe for Cream Tea Scones, baked them in a mini bunt pan, and filled them with Blackberry Whipped Cream! I have a passion for "pretty baking" and am always trying to turn my baked goods into little works of art for the Tea Table! I was really happy with how these turned out! The baking pan that I used can be found here or you can use your muffin pan. You won't get the design at the top but it will still be pretty! I rolled out my dough to 3/4" then using my large cookie scoop (1 3/4" wide) as a cookie cutter I punched out 12 circles, re-rolled the dough and got 4 more, 16 total. (You can use a cookie cutter instead.) Then I pressed the circles into my lightly greased pan that had been sprinkled with some sparkling sugar. (The sugar is optional) The filling is easy peasy and goes together in 1-2-3! Carefully slice scones in half and place on a baking sheet. Whip ingredients together and spoon or pipe onto bottom halves, then replace top halves. Pipe or spoon a bit more of the filling onto the top halves and decorate each with a blackberry! These are the perfect scones for an early summer tea party and look so pretty served on some lovely vintage plates! BLACKBERRY CREAM TEA SCONES For Scones: 3 cups unbleached all purpose flour 1 tablespoon baking powder 1 teaspoon salt 1/4 to 1/3 cup granulated sugar, to taste 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 1/3 to 1 1/2 cups heavy or whipping cream coarse white sparkling sugar For Filling: 1 cup heavy whipping cream 1 tablespoon powdered sugar 1/4 cup seedless blackberry jam Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Lightly grease bundt/muffin pan and sprinkle each cavity with coarse white sugar if desired. Whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Sprinkle the vanilla over the dry ingredients, then drizzle in the cream, tossing and stirring gently all the while and adding just enough to make a cohesive dough. There shouldn't be any dry flour in the bottom of the bowl, but the dough shouldn't be particularly sticky, either. On a lightly floured work surface, roll out dough to 3/4" thickness. Using a large cookie scoop like you would a cookie cutter, punch out circles of dough and place into prepared bundt pan. Press gently into each cup. For best rising, place the pan of scones into the freezer for 15 minutes. Bake the chilled scones for 14-15 minutes until they are starting to brown. Remove scones from oven and let cool in pan for 5 minutes, then remove to a cooling rack. Makes 16 scones. While the scones are cooling prepare the filling: Into a chilled bowl with chilled beaters place heavy cream and powdered sugar and beat until you get stiff peaks. On slowest setting, beat in blackberry jam just until combined. Place filling in a large piping bag fitted with a star tip. Slice cooled scones in half, pipe desired amount of filling on bottom half, replace top half, pipe a pretty swirl of filling on top and garnish with a blackberry. Place these on the tea table and prepare for ooooohs and aaaahs! So yummy and delicious!! Enjoy!!

Hello everyone, In January I always enjoy looking back over some of my favorite tea times. Hopefully, you enjoy a look back as well. Above is one of my favorite winter white teas. The romantic month of February always brings out this pretty teapot as it was a Valentine gift from my husband several years ago. Soft brown & white transferware for March. Red and white transferware for April. May brings out all the sunny yellow daffodils in our garden. In late June the roses start to bloom so they make pretty bouquets for a June Tea. A big bouquet of peonies from the garden is the perfect centerpiece for a July Tea. A soft romantic August Tea in the Boathouse. September is a nature lovers tea in the tiny conservatory of the Boathouse. The warm cozy tea time of October. November is a good time to bring out my transferware again. This is one of my favorite December Teas. All this looking a tea time photos reminds me that it is time for a hot cup of tea! Thank you for visiting, Carolyn

Crafting the perfect cup of Moroccan tea is a special process. You cannot rush. You cannot cut corners. And no, a microwave is not involved. Pay close attention to these steps, and you'll do just fine.
Recipe video above. Super quick and easy classic plain scone recipe, fluffy inside with golden tops. Using a food processor is not only easier, it eliminates common pitfalls when it comes to making scones. Serve with copious amounts of jam and cream!
I've never turned down an invite to afternoon tea. For me, tea time invariably brought together everything I adored all in one place. I can always expect a delicious variety of finger foods, exotic teas (perfect because I don't
Alex P. asks: What’s the difference between green and black tea? Isn’t it all just tea from the same plant? Both black and green tea is harvested from an evergreen, tree-like shrub known as camellia sinensis. Most likely originating in China, the camellia sinensis is thought to have first been used to brew a medicinal elixir during the Shang Dynasty [...]
