An invitation to a fun and fancy afternoon tea for Mom and Me!
Growing up on Sydney's north shore, Miranda Kerr is close to her mom and recalls many years close to her grandmother's side despite now living overseas. To Miranda, at the end of the day, all your mom really wants is to enjoy quality time with you and the perfect solution is to create a pretty and thoughtful moment to spend time together. It only takes five easy steps, just remember…
1. Flowers
Choose your mom’s favorite flowers to decorate the table by popping pretty spring blooms in little glass bottles or arrange them in a teacup. Your mom can even take these home with her.
2. Cake
Cake is an absolute essential for your afternoon tea with mom. If you fancy a challenge or are already quite the baker put some time aside to bake one yourself, you know she’s definitely worth the effort. A Chocolate Buttercream Cake always goes down a treat, as does an Australian favourite - the Pavlova.
3. Beverages
To create the perfect Mother’s Day afternoon tea, remember to spend time selecting the perfect tea to suit your mom’s taste, it’s the most important ingredient. We also love the idea of creating a delicious punch decorated with fruit and edible flowers to add that special twist.
4. BEAUTIFUL Teaware
If you don’t already have an afternoon tea set, don’t worry, there is no need to go crazy and buy everything. To get started all you need are the essentials; a teapot , 2 teacups and saucers and a sugar and cream set. You can always add to the collection if you really love it. Miranda's involvement with Royal Albert is an example of classic china pieces with whimsical elegance. These ranges are so loved that they are often collected by mom's...and their daughters.
5. Your undivided attention
Ensure there are no distractions, don’t forget this is afternoon tea with Mom and Me. Leave your phone in your bag to make sure your mom remembers this very special day and your time together. This is the perfect opportunity to have fun together!
