Ingredients

  • 5 tea bags earl grey tea
  • 2 1/2 cups double cream
  • 3 tbsp sugar
  • puff pastry

Instructions

  1. Heat the double cream to a simmer. Turn off heat and add your choice of tea. Steep until desired taste is achieved, about 30 minutes, and remove tea. Let cool completely.

  2. Add sugar and whip cream until stiff peaks appear.

  3. Place whipped cream into a piping bag and set aside.

  4. To make the tea cup and saucer, shape the foil into a cup.

  5. Cut a long rectangle of puff pastry and wrap around the bottom side of the foil cup. Cut, fold, and press pastry until it covers the entire bottom of the foil, forming a full cup.

  6. Cut a second small strip of puff pastry to create the cup’s handle. Make two slits in the side of the pastry cup and shove the ends of the pastry handle into the slits.

  7. To make the saucer, simply cut out a circle of pastry.

  8. Bake the cup and saucer at 400°F until golden brown.

  9. Cut saucer in half and place cup on top. Pipe whipped cream into tea cup.
