While I would love to report on a delightful chocolate afternoon tea at the Cavendish Hotel in London, sadly it was not the case. Verdict – not chocolaty enough!
Words cannot describe my excitement all week leading up to afternoon of indulgence. But alas, the so called ‘chocolate afternoon tea’ was simply an afternoon tea with a few chocolates – casemir to be precise.
Oh well, we still put a dent in the platter which consisted of sandwiches, scones, a lemon tart, a coconut slice, chocolate éclairs, and the highlight for me…chocolate dipped strawberries. Which clearly doesn’t speak too highly if that was the highlight!
Anyway, not all was lost – I treated myself to a few goodies from Maison du Chocolat on Piccadilly afterwards. Next year, I think an indulgent chocolate pud will hit the spot…or I could just have one tonight!
