With the recent release of Alice in Wonderland, there is sure to be a resurgence in popularity for fun and fashionable Tea Parties this spring!

Jumpstart your own intimate tea party with this adorable Tea Set!  The set comes with a lime green with white dots serving plate, two flower saucers and tea cups, and one floral tea pot.

Want to dress up?  Hats, gloves, and  jewelry would be perfectly lovely… Want to invite your favorite dolls?  The more the merrier!  Add some flavored tea, bite-size sandwiches, scones or cookies, and you’re all set!

Here are two simple snack ideas sure to please any tea party guest:

Turkey & Raspberry-Chipotle Sandwiches

smoked turkey breast (sliced)

Raspberry-Chipotle sauce (Our favorite is Fischer-Weiser)

cream cheese spread

small sourdough rolls

sliced havarti cheese (0ptional)

Slice each roll in half, spreading the cream cheese on one side and the raspberry-chipotle sauce on the other.  Add turkey and cheese if desired.

Fruit Skewers

strawberries

blueberries

pineapple (diced into bite-size portions)

grapes

cantaloupe (diced into bite-size portions)

shisk-kabob bamboo skewers, cut in half

Thread fruit on skewers and serve chilled.  Provide dipping sauce if you’d like.  (We love a half-and-half mixture of marshmallow creme and cream cheese- yummy!)

Cheers!
