Yummy Scrummy Afternoon Tea

Sorry I have been so quiet the past few weeks. Life has been very busy lately and my poor blog has been neglected. I have got lots of pics in my phone so over the next week or so I will get the blog updated again!
What a better place to start than Afternoon Tea??? Me and the girls LOVE treating ourselves to Afternoon tea. We have visited lots of different places in our Area but sometimes I think it is hard to beat a little tea party at home. This was all thrown together pretty quickly the night before so its all very simple.
The star of the show was definility the Peanut Butter cake. It was so moist and delicious and I will definitely be making it again.

I used this recipe and it came out perfect. I cooked it in a pudding bowl which is how i got the dome shape.

Sandwhiches were Tuna mayo and sweetcorn, Chicken garlic mayo and sweet roasted peppers and Honey Roast Ham and mustard. 

Scones were a basic scone recipe and of course filled with Jam and clotted cream. 

The girls made the little Jelly shots and dipped strawberrys in chocolate.

The mini Lemon Meringues were gorgeous and really easy to make. I made little sweet pastry tarts and filled them with a spoonful of Lemon curd and topped with meringue.

The apple pies were made using the same pasrty cases and filled with an apple and cinnamon sauce and topped with whipped cream. 
All washed down with Yummy Scrummy Suki tea and the girls had Hot chocolates.
