Valentine’s Day is so much fun when celebrated with children. My kids go gaga over the glittery paper hearts, frilly decorations and, of course, the sweet treats. Their version love is so pure and innocent; it could melt even the hardest of hearts. To help them celebrate, we’re embracing the sweeter side of Cupid’s arrow with a pint-sized Valentine’s Day tea party.
To let the kids know this is a party just for them, start by scaling down. This adorable tea set from Crow Canyon Home is perfectly sized for little hands. The kids love sipping pink lemonade from the tiny cups. Mom loves that the set is made from durable enamelware that will stand up to years of shatterproof fun.
To make things extra fancy, place all your tea party treats on a cake stand. This 2 Tier Cake Stand by Maxwell & Williams adds the perfect splash of Valentine’s Day red and white. A little vase filled with inexpensive mini carnations, a heart garland and a pretty tablecloth finish the look.
Of course, no tea party is complete without some amazing sweet treats to nibble. My daughter went absolutely wild over the Babycakes Triple Delight Multi-Treat Maker. With a design similar to a waffle iron, the Babycakes Triple Delight makes mini cupcakes, mini donuts or cake pops in as little as 5 minutes. Since it’s colorful, quick and easy to use, it’s an absolutely perfect way to bake with kiddos.
We had so much fun dreaming up new flavor combinations and creating the treats. Frankly, I was a bit skeptical that the little machine would work as promised but every batch came out perfectly and the Babycakes requires almost no clean up or maintenance.
Our tiny tea party treats included decadent Nutella-Dipped Brownie Cake Pops, deliciously light Strawberry Cupcakes with Strawberry Cream Cheese Frosting (check out both recipes below) and Baby Buttermilk Donuts with Vanilla Buttermilk Glaze (visit my blog for the donut recipe).
