    Yummo!
    Maybe some dips to go with the bread? Or instead of whipped cream for the fruit have Toblerone dip (just melted tobes with cream soooo good) if you don't end up having a chocolate fountain.
    Sounds awesome. Have fun

    Yummo!!

    How about some olives and hommus plattered up with the dukkah?

    Chilled water? With some lemon and/or orange and/or lime wedges (coz I'm boring and I like water)

    I like dates on my cheese platters or grapes (but I'm probably alone in that)

    Thought I'd revive this thread coz I have a similar-but-not-quite-the-same-question, no need to start all over again, loving the suggestions in here!

    I'm having a Mad Hatters Tea Party - basically a high tea kinda thing, but I'm encouraging everyone to get dressed up and wear a funky hat or fascinator, mainly so I can buy another fascinator

    So, having it in my backyard coz its huge, hiring a couple of trestle tables and linen and chairs, trying to justify the expense of fabric and ribbon chair covers to DH for extra sophistimication. Was going to going to have lots of different teas for everyone to try, with one of those 'tea-for-one' sets for everyone and a big urn with boiling water. Apart from that, finger sandwiches, cupcakes, fresh fruit and cheese platters.

    Anything else - food or decoration wise - that you would suggest?

    PS - Kim, yep! Ohhh that dip sounds delish, PMing you now!
