Again with the Tiffany’s blue. Swoon.
They even had a gluten-free afternoon tea, that totally didn’t taste gluten-free, if you know what I mean.

Fortnum’s Diamond Jubilee Tea Room has been awarded by The Tea Guild.
“The Tea Guild Awards are now in their 27th year and are the renowned awards for the afternoon tea industry, compared as the Oscars of the afternoon tea world.” – Afternoon Tea Online

They have the most amazing tea, coffee, biscuits, honey, confections and preserves of all kinds.
They also have all your hopes and dreams wrapped up in the vibrant, colorful packaging.

1.) This guy:
2.) A famous British dessert known as Spotted Dick:
3.) Truffle. Honey.
