As you all know the Dormouse team just love afternoon tea and if you are looking for ideas for an afternoon tea with a difference then look no further than a Mad Hatters Tea Party.  

When we heard about London chocolatiers Lucky's pop up shop in Harvey Nichols London we were fascinated with their Alice in Wonderland theme. As you may know we are Alice fans ourselves and the concept of a whole range, a quality chocolate range at that, in a Wonderland themed shop oh my ears and whiskers!

Unfortunately we were unable to get to the capital to see it for ourselves, but determined that we wouldn't miss out on the tea party the kind people at Lucky's sent us a selection of their exclusive honey based cake squares to try.

They certainly shouted "Eat Me!"



Beautifully presented in a sumptuous gift box, decorated with silver White Rabbits and white fur interior sat three delicious treats. Each one thickly coated with the finest pure Valrhona© chocolate, containing soft spiced cake and a different rich and creamy filling.

We tried:

Nutty Delay
35% white chocolate covered and chocolate praline filling

This was delicious we loved the fresh tasting praline and the lovely spiced cake, with the gorgeous creamy white chocolate.

Fancy Fudge
60% cacao dark chocolate covered and milk caramel filling

The contrast of dark chocolate and milk caramel was a taste sensation. We loved how the caramel oozed out, a bit messy but worth it.

Coco Rush
60% cacao dark chocolate covered & coconut cream filling

This was exactly like a grown up Bounty bar, I am afraid to say none of the rest of the team got a look in with this one. It would be really nice to cut up and serve with after dinner drinks.

Each 95g unit serves two and we would go as far to say in two sittings, as they really were very rich and satisfying. At £9.50 a bar they are quite expensive, but we believe you get what you pay for and would be lovely as a special present.

Never has following the white rabbit been so delicious!

We received chocolates from Lucky's free of charge to review.

The Dormouse team are desperate to pop down to the Sanderson Hotel London sometime soon to try their amazing Mad Hatters Afternoon Tea. Described as fun and zany experience it takes its inspiration from Alice in Wonderland, written by Lewis Carroll.

With cold and hot pineapple lollipops, multicoloured sandwiches and melt in the mouth teacakes, the tea is perfect for people like us who love to have fun with food! One of the craziest dishes at has to be the exploding ice cream lollipops but there are many other tasty treats such as chocolate crackle cupcake surprise, cream cheese and smoked salmon, hazelnut and passion fruit tart, emerald spinach bread, yellow saffron bread and scones with thickened cream and jam. Yum!

The Mad Hatters Afternoon Tea is £20.00 or £29.50 with a glass of champagne and is served from 2.30pm - 5.30pm each day at The Sanderson Hotel 50 Berners Street, England W1T 3NG until 1 March.
