London Kitchen Deliveries offers luxurious afternoon tea at home

With most restaurants and cafes still being closed due to Covid 19 I have been missing going along to enjoy an afternoon tea with friends but thankfully thanks to London Kitchen Deliveries I was able to enjoy a deluxe afternoon tea in the comfort of my own home.

On a courtesy basis London Kitchen Deliveries gifted me an afternoon tea to to along with my husband Jason to enjoy our special 13th wedding anniversary.

Deluxe afternoon tea at home

Upon receiving my afternoon tea box from London Kitchen Deliveries for my wedding anniversary treat I was highly delighted by the selection from an array of savoury and sweet treats.

This is what was within the afternoon tea box

Savoury Selection
2 x Focaccia sandwich with Parma ham, pesto & mozzarella
2 x Fritttata with slow roast tomato, courgette, feta & basil
2 x Gourmet harissa & fennel seed sausage roll

Scones
2 x home made scones with strawberry jam and clotted cream

Sweet Treats
2 x lemon posset pots with freeze dried raspberries
4 x pistachio macarons & 2 x raspberry macarons
2 x sticky toffee pudding

Tea
4 x Tea Pigs premium tea bags

I was particularly happy to see that the sandwich was not made from the usual white or brown bread but in fact from Focaccia bread which was delightfully different and delicious.

After admiring all the delights I set up my table ready for mine and my husbands wedding anniversary afternoon tea along with my Denby tea set.

Now time to enjoy.

The Focaccia sandwich is I must admit the best sandwich I have ever had within any afternoon teas. The Focaccia was light, fluffy and salty and the filling which consisted of Parma ham, pesto & mozzarella was very moorish a very Italian take.

The Frittata with slow roast tomato, courgette, feta and basil was lovely it tasted a little like a quiche but packed full of flavour. The feta with it’s creamy taste and basil with it’s slight anise, taste and sweetness gave this frittata a real wow factor.

The harissa & fennel seed sausage roll was lovely. Wrapped in a flaky buttery pastry this sausage roll provided an added kick due to the chillies and an anise like flavour due to the fennel. It was a very different take on a normal sausage roll.

These macarons did not disappoint from their look through to their taste. Rounded in taste these macarons provided a soft crunch, creamy and sweet sugary explosion.

The sticky toffee pudding was delicious without a luxurious toffee cream. The sponge was light and airy. The cream gave it that extra texture and sweetness. Perfection.

The lemon posset pot was a zesty explosion one of the best lemon posset’s that I have ever had. The frozen raspberries gave it that extra zing.

To finish we munched down on the delicious scones which came with fresh clotted cream and Tiptree Wilkin & Sons Strawberry Jam. The scone was buttery, fresh, light and tasty. The cream and jam accompanied it very well. Every bite was pure heaven.

Tea Pigs Earl Grey tea worked beautifully with the scone and was a nice touch to end the glorious afternoon tea.

Savoury & Sweet Delight

London Kitchen Deliveries afternoon tea was truly a savoury & sweet delight from start to finish.

I have eaten at many restaurants within London and the World and I must admit that this afternoon tea is one of the top favourites and one which I can enjoy in the safety and comfort of my own home.

So if you are looking for a classy afternoon tea that is luxurious or a bespoke meal I highly recommend London Kitchen Deliveries.
