Pretty as a picture....


It's been a busy weekend but it's great to be getting back into the swing of things now that the festivities (and all of the Winter bugs - touch wood) are out of the way.  We had two bookings for this weekend; one was a Mr Happy cake and matching cupcakes for a 1st birthday party and the other was pretty pink cupcakes for a 40th celebration

The 40th was held at The Mansion House in York (http://www.mansionhouseyork.co.uk/) and comprised a lavish vintage afternoon tea hosted by Yorkshire Teas (http://www.classiccrockeryhire.co.uk/) followed by a chocolate making workshop in the Mansion House kitchens, led by Little Pretty Things (http://www.littleprettything.co.uk/)


My part was relatively small in the grand scheme of things, but I was thrilled with the stunning photographs taken on the day by Robert Nemeti (http://www.nemetiphotos.com/home.html).  I'm trying to think whether I can concoct a suitable reason to host my own vintage tea party in this stunning venue!  

I really hope to collaborate more with local small businesses, as together truly unique and intricately lavish experiences can be created.  I might just book an event to celebrate the fact that it's nearly the end of January, or because it's Monday, or that the sun's finally out..... Who wants to come?
