As Henry James once said, “there are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea.” This very British ceremony first became popular in the 19th century, especially under Queen Victoria.
A traditional afternoon tea menu includes delicate sandwiches, additional savoury bites such as devilled eggs, scones and other bite-sized cakes. These treats are accompanied by a carefully brewed cup of loose leaf tea.
Today, afternoon tea has seen a surge in popularity; it’s the perfect way to entertain friends in the garden. If you’re thinking about planning one, why not stock up on these British artisan goodies? We’ve even scooped up some exclusive discounts for GBF readers!
