Teatime at Old Nibley Farmhouse

Well, it was a very successful afternoon.  Everybody enjoyed the spread... of course a selection of sandwiches, and cakes consisting of the coconut & lime sponge, miniature chocolate sachertortes, individual cherry bakewells and lemon meringue tartlets, ginger drizzled lemon cake and not forgetting the scones with strawberry preserve & clotted cream - demolished with much eagerness!

 
Service now available to book at £15 per head (minimum 2 persons) with at least 3 days notice - not quite wonderwoman speed in the baking division! Normally scheduled for 3pm but if you would prefer another time between 2pm and 4pm arrangements can be made. We will need to be notified of any dietary requirements at time of booking, but cannot guarantee if ingredients are unavailable at short notice. Contact details on website www.oldnibleyfarmhouse.co.uk.

Afternoon Tea at 3

Decks cleared, BIG baking starts tomorrow for the dry run of my new venture "Afternoon Tea at 3".  Having some friends around to sample my offerings of sandwiches and cakes and be photographed for the video, which will eventually be posted on the afternoon tea page of my website.
Been costing it all this afternoon.  Have put together a variety of different pretty bone china cups, saucers, plates and teapots aswell as cake stands and plates.
