Mother's Day is all about showering Mum with love, appreciation, and spoiling her with chocolate. And what better way to celebrate her than with an at-home afternoon tea party?
So, fluff up the cushions, pop the kettle on, and let's turn you into the perfect host.
Step One: Set the Scene
First things first, ambience! Let's set up her favourite flowers, polish off some dainty teacups, and scatter some truffles. Remember, it's all about Mum, so dec it out with her favourite colours, snacks and fudge.
Step Two: The Chocolate Centrepiece
No tea party is complete without a show-stopping centrepiece, and we are bound to have something she'll love. Our Devonshire fudge collection (try the exclusive Mother's Day clotted cream!) will have Mum swooning with every buttery smooth bite. Want to go the extra mile? Pile up some of our Larger lots of Love truffles for a heart-melting display.
Step Three: A Brew-tiful Selection
Of course, we can't forget about the tea that floats her boat. Picture a light Earl Grey or some delicate floral loose-leaf teas, or maybe a chocolatey chai to complement her new Montezuma's stash. Want to secure that favourite child spot? We doubt Mum would mind swapping out the afternoon tea for some afternoon bubbles.
Step Four: Sweet and Savoury Delights
While we're all about the sweet stuff, it's good to have a little balance. Prepare some complimentary finger sandwiches, scones with clotted cream, and some chocolate covered strawberries (using our organic buttons) for a little extra indulgence.
Step Five: The Special Touch
Mums notice the tiny details. A handwritten note, a handcrafted music playlist or her favourite chocolates all wrapped up in a gift hamper would go a long way. Remember, the best gifts are those given with love (and chocolate), so no matter what you do, she is sure to love it.
So, no excuses now! Make your Mum's day by hosting her perfect afternoon tea party this Mother's Day. Show her you care by making it an afternoon bursting with laughter, love and a whole lotta Montezuma's magic. Here's to creating sweet moments with sweeter treats.
