Vintage Tea Cup(cake) Wrappers
Vintage Tea Cup(cake) Wrappers
These lovely little wrappers give new meaning to the words ‘sweet tea.’ I came across them while looking for fresh cupcake ideas for a good friend’s baby shower/tea party and fell head over heels. Mine just arrived today in record time from theblushingbakeshop.com, similar to the beauties above but custom made in pink tones (my friend is having a baby girl), and the service couldn’t be friendlier, more efficient and pretty light on the wallet.
Truly unique and steeped in charm, they would add a touch of whimsy to any tea party, or for that matter, any special occasion where cupcakes would be welcome (and let’s be honest, where wouldn’t they be)? The best part is, they’re so cute all on their own, so no need to do much decorating. Just pipe on some frosting, add a real or iced flower on top and voila, a deliciously brewed batch of sweet tea cakes ready for sipping, or um, licking.
