Tea Time & sweets !!!!!!!!!!!!

  On New Year's Day, Mommy and I had some friends over for tea and sweets.   I had the idea because I got four cookbooks for Christmas.  I invited Gillian & Ellen because they both like tea.

'Green Apple' Cupcakes =D

     Mommy and I made cupcakes, scones, whoopie pies and macarons.  The cupcakes looked like green apples.  We used candy as the stems and leaves. We used two cupcakes for each 'green apple',  the bottom was a big cupcake and the top was a mini cupcake.  

✔Orange-Chocolate Chip Scone

    The scones were orange-chocolate chip. I used real orange zest and that made the whole difference.  You could really taste the orange. 

     The whoopie pies were red velvet with vanilla frosting.  These were the only things not made from scratch.  They were still good, even though we forgot to add the water.  

Macaron shells to be continued...❤

Pumpkin cinnamon filling

Finished (penguin time)✰

     Last, but not least, were the macarons.  They were French meringue shells with pumpkin cinnamon filling.  Mommy said we got the perfect meringue.  It all was fantastic.  

Table set for tea.❀

Well fed ☝

     For tea we had English Breakfast tea. We got to use Nana's fancy china.  When Gillian & Ellen came we all told funny stories and jokes.  Flopster came to pay a visit.  I had a fun time.  I will definitely do this again.
