Little lady is 6!
Our “baby” had a birthday this week and we had her birthday party today. It is our wedding anniversary too – double celebrations!
She decided on a “fancy” tea party theme invited all the girls in her class. No tea for the little ladies though – they had pink lemonade instead (Daddy and I had a cuppa though!!)
Here are some photos of the treats I made.
Teapot shortbread
Cupcake bitesThe girls all had a great time and little lady got some great gifts! Tonight once I put the kids to bed I am putting up my feet and having a glass of wine with my sweetie.

I LOVE shortbread cookies! These treats are so cute. Know she had a wonderful day.
Oh, yummy… The shortbread AND the tiny cupcakes look just perfect for a tea party.

The “cupcakes” are more of a candy. The centers are strawberry cake crumbles mixed with cream cheese frosting. They are rolled and then placed in a peanut butter cup mold that is filled with chocolate and then once the choc is set up them they are turned over and dipped in white or pink chocolate!
Aww, happy birthday to your little lady! My little lady turned 21 today. Yikes! Makes me feel old! I miss the tea party days. Glad you had fun!
Gillian! You are so talented! I love the Teapot cookies (I’d die for good shortbread about now) YUM! and the cupcake bites are so dainty! Lovely party I’m sure you had!
And, lest I forget, Happy Anniversary!

I made some tea pot sugar cookies for our last garden club too. . . only I iced mine. The icing got all smushed down when I put plastic wrap over the platter.

Iwas going to let the girls frost and decorate the cookies but realised they would have more than enough sugar without frosting!
