Nothing like a luscious cup of tea
after a day of drudgery.........cake is added bonus. This cake IS a cup of tea. I made it
for a Mad Hatter Tea Party. I just love love love the Mad Hatter from the
Looking glass (or Alice in Wonderland). Johnny Depp was just adorable as this
character. “There is a place. Like no place on Earth. A land full of wonder,
mystery, and danger! Some say to survive it: You need to be as mad as a hatter.
Which luckily I am”.
Sometimes this world seems like a tea party,
where we switch places on the table without reason, make short, personal
remarks, ask unanswerable riddles and recite nonsensical poetry. Is there a
rhyme and reason to anything or are we in this world like a storm in a
teacup--- here one day, gone the other?
This stormy teacup is almond cake with almond
mousse filling. Yummy with a cuppa --- Unless coffee is more your “cup of
tea”….. this cake will taste well with that too. Enjoy!
I just love your cakes... :)

ReplyDeletePops this is lovely [as usual] and I LOVE what you have written....Great stuff! I too loved Johnny Depp in the role......Always love the concept of Alice...Anything can happen! Be prepared to be surprised, and cope with it. Maybe the right code to live by. And if we get a slice of your cake after, what could be better? Keep 'em coming!
ReplyDeleteThe detail on the cup and saucer make it look so real.
ReplyDeleteCoffee is 'my cup of tea' but I can assure you it will taste equally good with coffee as well or maybe better....but it would be a little funny to have a 'cup of tea' with your coffee:)
Yes that detail is incredible!! and so vibrant against the white!
