A business is supplying a Valentine’s Day afternoon tea box delivery service to share friendship and love with a slice of luxury.
The Tea Garden in Granby is an afternoon tea box delivery service founded by Annette Allington in 2020.
The owner has been supplying home-delivered afternoon teas for nearly four years.
It started as a hobby Annette was made redundant from her job during the Covid-19 lockdown and it grew into a business that offers a range of celebration cakes, and sweet treats, plus caters for individuals with food intolerances.
As Valentine's Day is celebrated on Wednesday (February 14), the Tea Garden has created a Valentine’s Afternoon Tea for two which is available from February 10 until February 18.
Annette said: “It wasn’t until I started promoting my celebration cakes that I realised how many people needed different options due to allergies.
“It is something I have a keen interest in so I started researching and experimenting.
“As well as catering for vegan and vegetarian diets, I can also supply afternoon teas and my cakes for gluten and dairy-free diets, plus, soy and plant-based custom orders are also very popular”.
Delivery of the afternoon tea boxes is free within five miles radius of Bingham covering the following areas: Bingham, Aslockton, Bottesford, Whatton, Plungar, Harby, Hose, Langar, Cropwell Butler, Cropwell Bishop, Granby, Barkestone, Barnstone, Redmile, Vale of Belvoir.
The Valentine’s Afternoon Tea includes a selection of popular finger sandwiches including smoked salmon on assorted bread as well as savouries such as sausage rolls.
There are several sweet options such as chocolate brownies, Victoria sandwich sponge, chocolate cupcakes, all-butter shortbread hearts and quintessential light and fluffy fruit scones with strawberry jam and clotted cream.
It also includes Twinings Tea, napkins and a surprise treat.
Annette added: “We love this time of the year, it’s such a special romantic occasion but we have noticed a slight difference this time around.
“This year it appears Valentine’s Day isn’t just for couples, in fact, we’ve had orders from people wanting to show some love and appreciation for different people in their lives.
“For instance, we’ve had orders for someone’s daughter, mum and granny.”
