Indulge in Elegance: The Perfect Afternoon Tea At Home with Crumb & Deli
There’s something uniquely charming about the tradition of afternoon tea – a moment of delightful indulgence, a pause in the day to savour sweet and savoury treats with a comforting cup of tea. While the grandeur of a hotel setting has its appeal, imagine the serene pleasure of enjoying a sumptuous afternoon tea at home, tailored to your tastes and enjoyed in your favourite space. At Crumb & Deli, we believe this classic British ritual is more accessible and enjoyable than ever, and we’re here to make your home-based tea dreams a delicious reality.
The Crumb & Deli Difference: Your Bespoke Afternoon Tea Experience
At Crumb & Deli in Westgate-on-Sea, we pour our passion for bread, cakes, cheese, and yummy nibbles into every offering, and our afternoon tea boxes are no exception. We understand that a truly memorable afternoon tea at home is about more than just food; it’s about creating an experience. That’s why we’ve carefully curated a selection of freshly baked delights and savoury bites, designed to transport you to a world of culinary bliss.
What can you expect when you order your afternoon tea from us? Prepare for a feast for the senses, featuring:
- The Chocciest Brownies: Rich, decadent, and utterly irresistible, our brownies are a highlight for any chocolate lover.
- Freshly Baked Scones: The quintessential component of any afternoon tea, our scones are light, fluffy, and baked to perfection.
- Fresh Cream and Jam: No scone is complete without a generous dollop of clotted cream and a spoonful of fruity jam – the ultimate debate of cream or jam first is yours to settle!
- Delicious Quiche: A savoury counterpoint to the sweet treats, our freshly baked quiches add a touch of wholesome goodness.
- Perfectly Filled Rolls: Traditionally filled and bursting with flavour, our rolls offer a satisfying savoury element.
- Fresh Fruit: A vibrant addition to cleanse the palate and add a touch of natural sweetness.
The beauty of a Crumb & Deli afternoon tea at home is the ability to customise your experience. We welcome requests to tailor your box with different flavours and fillings, ensuring your afternoon tea is exactly as you envision it. Whether you have a preference for certain cheeses from our UK and Continental selection or a specific filling for your rolls, just let us know, and we’ll craft your perfect spread.
Setting the Scene: More Than Just Food
Imagine a lazy summer’s afternoon in your garden, the sun dappling through the trees, or perhaps a magical sunset at the beach, with the gentle sound of waves. Our afternoon tea boxes are just the thing for these idyllic moments. But to truly immerse yourself in the elegance of an afternoon tea at home, we also offer an array of vintage crockery and tablecloths for hire. These charming additions can transform your setting, adding an authentic touch of timeless sophistication to your tea party.
We believe that every detail contributes to the overall experience. From the carefully chosen ingredients to the option of hiring beautiful tableware, we aim to make your afternoon tea at home an occasion to cherish.
Beyond Afternoon Tea: The Crumb & Deli Story
Crumb & Deli is more than just a bakery; it’s a culmination of everything I adore: bread, cakes, cheese, and yummy nibbles! It’s a place where I can showcase my creativity and source exceptional stock from around the UK and wider afield. Sharing these finds with you all brings me immense pleasure.
Nestled in Westgate-on-Sea, our deli also offers a delightful range of daily specials, including homemade soups, rich lasagne, comforting chilli, and our famous scotch eggs. Our bread pudding, a beloved customer favourite, has quickly gained a reputation for its nostalgic trip down memory lane, taking customers back to their grandma’s kitchen. Sold in large blocks, there’s always enough to share (or to secretly enjoy all to yourself!). And of course, no visit is complete without one of our Italian blended espressos or a refreshing cold drink to go.
Beyond afternoon tea, our offerings extend to:
- Cheese Counter: A curated selection of UK and Continental cheeses, sourced from local and international dairies.
- Charcuterie Trays: Beautifully prepared trays of delectable nibbles for any special treat.
- Hampers: A year-round hamper service, perfect for corporate clients or cherished friends and family.
- Event Catering: A bespoke service for both domestic and corporate events, with each package tailor-made to your specific requirements.
