A while back I came up with the idea that I wanted to organize a high tea at my house for all of the female members of the family. After much talk and planning the event finally took place this past Saturday. No one in my family, apart from my mom, had actually been to high tea before so I had to explain the concept to them and also instruct everyone on what to make. The idea was that everyone would be responsible for one dish, apart from me because I planned several things to make (overachiever that I am). The morning of the high tea I drove to everyone's houses and picked up their items then arranged them at my house before they came over in the afternoon.
Our menu was quite extensive and I'm so proud of how it turned out. We had:
- Croissants with egg salad
- Zucchini and tomato tartlets
- Stuffed mushrooms
- Salmon and cucumber crostini
- Cucumber roll ups
- Ham and cheese roll ups
- Cheese and chive biscuits
- Cranberry and orange scones
- Chocolate almond florentines
- Brownies with cream cheese filling
- Macarons with raspberry and vanilla buttercream
- Chocolate macarons with espresso buttercream
