This year to celebrate Valentines day I had to settle for an afternoon tea at home on Sunday as my hubby wanted to watch the England rugby game on TV. He also wanted to watch our local Rugby club match on Saturday afternoon so could not book anything for either afternoon and Monday we are both working. This did not stop me from having an afternoon tea for Valentine day as I ordered one online to be delivered from Piglets Pantry.
I have ordered from them before the classic afternoon tea which I thought was very nice and good value.
They are doing a special Valentines themed one prices at £35 and serves 2. It consists of the below
2 X POTS OF TIPTREE CHERRY JAM
2 X POTS OF RODDA’S CLOTTED CREAM
2 X TEAPIGS TEA BAGS
1 X PASSIONFRUIT AND MASCARPONE LOAF CAKE
1 X MOCHA LOAF CAKE
2 X PROFITEROLES (FLAVOURS VARY – RHUBARB AND CUSTARD, BANOFFEE, LEMON CHEESECAKE)
1 X CHOCOLATE COVERED DECADENT RASPBERRY CHEESECAKE COVERED IN VALRHONA RUBY SENSATIONS RASPBERRY CHOCOLATE
1 X TRADITIONAL SAUSAGE ROLLS
1 X LAMB KOFTA SAUSAGE ROLL
2 X BEEF BRISKET AND SMOKED APPLEWOOD CHEESE QUICHES
2 X TIKKA SPICED SCOTCH EGG
All this for £35 I think is very good value and delivered in a lovely pink box with tissue paper and dry ice bags to keep it cool.
I did add some macaroons that I already had in the freezer and I could not resist buying a Colin and Connie cake from M&S that will probably save till tomorrow as feeling rather full now !!!!!!
I laid the food out nicely on the table and opened a bottle of Prosecco ........
The savouries I warmed up in the oven and they all tasted very nice, we liked the lamb sausage roll best.
Whilst the scones were warming in oven we had the cakes next. Four different ones including a lovely raspberry cheesecake in shape of the word LOVE.
I liked the Passion fruit one with poppy seeds best along with the cheesecake whilst my hubby liked the coffee flavoured one.
They all tasted delicious and we was very impressed with them all.
A few glasses of Prosecco later we tucked onto the plain scones which warmed up and topped with cherry jam and clotted cream were very nice !!!!!!Very nice afternoon with lots of lovely food whilst hubby watches the England Game.
I seriously recommend ordering from Piglets Pantry and already wondering if they will do a special Afternoon Tea for Mothers day ?
HAPPY VALENTINES DAY
