Afternoon tea hamper recommendations

Elisebev · 31 May 20, 06:14 AM

Hi
it’s my parents wedding anniversary on Friday. I usually get them something but obviously most shops are shut and even if they weren’t I’m Shielding so havnt been in a shop since March.

We are feeling a bit down in the dumps as we should have been in the states just now joining in the celebrations for my nieces high school graduation

I thought I’d send them a wee surprise on Friday of an afternoon tea hamper. Was all set to order one but that particular company is full till 11th June. Does anyone have any recommendations of a good place to order from. Thought I’d ask the DIBB since you guys know everything

Have you looks at local bakeries/cake shops?

I know that there are a few local to us that are delivering afternoon teas.

Do you have a Facebook group for your local area that you could ask on?

We’re getting a second delivery from Piglets Pantry on Saturday as we loved the first one so much. They’re doing a Father’s Day one so we’re giving that a try.

We’ve had a couple of others delivered from local places (bakeries and coffee shops) that I’ve found on Facebook. Some have been great, others have just been okay. It’s definitely worth checking what’s available locally.

I’ve ordered one from a local cafe who has started to deliver. It was my friends 60th birthday and her daughters 30 th birthday and they were due to have a joint party last night
Th efirm I used has supplied a voucher so they can book the date that they want

Mitch, did you see my IG post on an afternoon delivery from one of our local restaurants? It was really good

Thanks everyone. I ended up ordering a customised hamper from Cartwright and butler

I did, but too late as I’d already ordered. It looked excellent though. Just recommended them to a friend, much prefer to go local.
Had a takeaway from olive tree brasserie in SH on Friday night, that was lovely
