Filled with recipes that have stood the test of time as well as fascinating anecdotes and tales, Tea Fit for a Queen reveals how the tradition of afternoon tea started in royal Britain. Over 40 charming recipes include everything from delicate finger sandwiches to Victoria sponge cake, Chelsea Buns and a Champagne Cocktail. In these pages learn about the infamous royals and their connection to the history of tea; why jam pennies were Queen Elizabeth II's favourite tea time treat and how mead cake came to be served during Henry VIII's reign. Discover what cake William and Catherine selected for their wedding and hear why orange-scented scones became a royal tradition at Kensington Palace. Tea Fit for a Queen presents a taste of palace etiquette to take home.

And I‘ll be using the mug from @Robothugs to drink all this amazing tea from @LeahBergen all the way from Canada. Yet another amazing, generous Litten, when she heard I was upset before Xmas, she sent me a Davids Tea package to cheer me up. I can‘t wait to try some of these, especially the Strawberry Rhubarb Parfait & the Honey Apple Crisp. Thank you thank you thank you😘❤️😘❤️😘

A snapshot of my themed "Spring in the Stacks" table I hostessed for my town's historical/genealogical society fundraiser. I finally had a reason to use my grandmother's china, my china, and my 1937 coronation tea pot I bought years ago!
