What is a good afternoon tea menu?
An Afternoon Tea menu should include light cakes, scones and sandwiches. Traditional sandwich fillings are often cucumber, smoked salmon, coronation chicken or egg mayonnaise. But they should always be served with the crusts cut off – Anne, the 7th Duchess of Bedford, was quite insistent on this point! Delectable scones, tea sandwiches, and cakes are the hallmark of an afternoon tea, which is served in midafternoon. A high tea, however, includes much more substantive fare, such as meat, fish, and egg dishes, as well as breads and desserts, and is offered in the early evening.Afternoon Tea is a tea-related ritual, introduced in Britain in the early 1840s. It evolved as a mini meal to stem the hunger and anticipation of an evening meal at 8pm.

How much food per person for afternoon tea?

We always recommend 1. It is extremely important to be aware of any dietary requirements and intolerances the guests might have. This could include vegetarians, vegans, coeliac (gluten intolerance), dairy intolerances or any other variety of allergies.
What to eat first at afternoon tea?
Start with the sandwiches, then proceed to the scones and finish your Afternoon Tea with the cakes. Most are meant to be picked up with the fingers. Break the scone into small pieces with your fingers or split it in half, again with your fingers. Then lather it in clotted cream and jam and enjoy. Choice of scones (but no clotted cream) Macaroons, lemon cookies, trifle, mini cream puffs and eclairs. Chocolate and white chocolate dipped strawberries Plus fruit salad, quinoa salad. Im probably forgetting a few things. I had a delicious tea sandwich with cream cheese and asparagus.
