Mad Hatter’s Tea Party

Wednesday, March 10th, 2010

We’ve just finished our first Mad Hatter’s Tea Party. Many thanks to all our guests for putting up with the mental Mad Hatter and in inquisitive White Rabbit. Hope everyone enjoyed their Afternoon Tea. Thanks to the amazing Karina from Kakao by K for letting us be in on the launch of her new jewellery collection Design by K. The collection is based on Alice in Wonderland and tea with a touch of Kakao. The pieces really are gorgeous – they’ll be available to purchase in eteaket for a limited time only so pop in and have a look.

If you missed out on the Mad Hatter madness this week, we’re holding another Tea Party on Wed 17 Mar in eteaket 6-7.30pm. It’s only £9.85 per person and includes Afternoon Tea. To book please contact hello@eteaket.co.uk or pop into eteaket Tea Boutique on Frederick St or Kakao by K on Thistle St.

Cupcake decorating fun

Wednesday, March 10th, 2010

We went cupcake crazy at eteaket last night. Thanks to everyone who joined in our cupcake decorating class with Liggy – our expert in all things icing related. The idea was that you made some lovely cupcakes to give to your Mum on Mother’s Day. Stupidly I ate four in a row and still have nothing for Sunday.

We will be running more cupcake decorating classes in the future. If you want to register your interest please just pop us in email to hello@eteaket.co.uk saying something like “cupcake class info please” and we’ll make sure you receive details of the next event.

P.s. If you’re still stuck for a Mother’s Day gift, remember we do gift vouchers (instore and online) – why not treat the most important person in your life to Afternoon Tea (only £9.85)?
