Customer Reviews

Lovely book.
Truly a lovely book indeed! Full of sumptious photographs thoughout, all in glorious colour. Most showing beautiful tranquil scenes of tea party settings laid out in the 'olde' English style. The pictures of the cakes and fancies made my mouth water. A real treat. Relaxing just to look at.

If you like a slice of cake and cup of tea at about 4pm then this is the book for you. Wonderful ideas for cakes, tea and table decorations. It'll make your mouth water just reading.
