A special thanks to Cadbury and MomSelect for the party kit I received to put together a fantastic tea party.
Wouldn’t it be wonderful if every little girl had the chance to experience a tea party at least once in her life?Β And wouldn’t having Cadbury ice cream bars at her tea party make it even more memorable?
I think so.
The ‘High Tea’ Party
I recently threw a tea party for some very special girls, and we had such a good time. The girls drank tea from adorable miniature tea cups, which they were able to take home to remember this party and to have for future tea parties of their own. They also wore elegant, fancy hats and enjoyed cold meat sandwiches for dinner.
TEA PARTY TIP: Cut sandwich bread into small triangles for a fun ‘old-fashioned’ tea party effect. The girls will love it.
Cadbury Ice Cream Bars
For dessert at our tea party, we delighted in Cadbury ice cream bars. These bars were the perfect ‘dainty’ size, and they were delicious.
I had four different kinds for the girls — royal dark chocolate, english toffee, caramello, and vanilla chocolate. English toffee was definitely a favorite.
DID YOU KNOW?Β Teatime is traditionally in the afternoon. We scheduled our party around 6:30pm.
A Confession
I’ve never thrown a tea party before, and I was a little nervous. But I think the girls truly had a great time, and I’m sure the fabulous hats helped. The girls each took their hat home, too. π
Would you like to have a tea party of your own? I’m sure you already know that it’s super easy, but in case you need a little help…
Β Here are my 5 Tips for a Successful Tea Party
- Plan your party.
- Keep it simple. You may or make not want to have a teatime meal, like sandwiches.
- Splurge on a set of cute tea cups. You won’t regret it.
- Have a fun treat to go along with the tea. We had ice cream bars.
- Laugh, and enjoy creating lasting memories.
All in all, I think both the moms and daughters had a great time at ourΒ Cadbury Ice Cream Bars ‘High Tea’ Party. I can’t wait to do it again someday!
Have you ever thrown a tea party? Is this something you’d like to do with your daughter?
What adorable hats!
I threw a tea party for my daughter’s 4th birthday, although their “tea” was actually apple juice π It was so much fun to decorate the table and bake up a bunch of tea party goodies. The ice cream bars would have really made it though!
That sounds like a great tea party, Erin. I’m sure your daughter loved it. The ice cream bars are something I never would’ve thought of including in a tea party, but they were fantastic. The girls loved them, and my sweet-toothed son loved them, too. π
How cute! I have never had them one I have been invited into their room to play though π I might just have to plan one π its way too cute and the memories we will make π
