[@MaHa-um5sv]

wow gorgeous!

[@MykeLyfe]

I love it! It reminds me of a 1960s-70s Halloween party with that savory sandwich cake! Where’s the jello salad? Ha ha very well done, I enjoyed every minute of it! ❤️

[@AlwynOak]

Haha absolutely get what you mean 😂 a great idea for the next Halloween party maybe 🤔😉 Thankyou sweet! 💚🌳✨

[@MykeLyfe]

@@AlwynOak can’t wait for more of your content! I’m really enjoying it

[@autumnkate280]

The black velvet cakes are in our oven now! :) I think you forgot to mention the boiling water quantity, easily enough done. For anyone trying these I looked across a few recipes and found that 75ml was the right amount. Looking forward to icing and eating! Thanks for this delicious looking recipe. My son helped me bake and really enjoyed it. Great for kids because there's so much mixing that can be done by hand/spoon..

[@AlwynOak]

Ah this makes me so happy!! Let me know what you think of them! A faultless recipe in my opinion!! Thanks for letting me know about the water!! Doh! I'll update that now! Happy New year and thanks again 😊🌳🌲✨

[@francascalzoguzman4291]

[@heathermoon3425]

Gorgeous! I love the sandwich cake and decor. What else did you have in your conversation cards? Never lose your sense of magic and beauty ! 🍁🍂

[@AlwynOak]

Aww thankyou my love that is such a beautiful compliment 😊 The conversation cards!!! Well... - 'do you believe it ghosts and why' - 'what have you learnt this past wheel of the year?' - 'What do you want to let go of this Sahwain' - 'What does Autumn mean to you' - 'what would you like your funeral to be like' 😅 (for fun!!) I also like to do a mini cleansing ritual at the end... But more on that next week 😉🌳✨

[@PolyPrincess315]

How lovely. I definitely want to try the apple crisps! I’m not much of a cook so I’ll start with that one. ☺️

[@AlwynOak]

What a lovely idea! Thank you for inviting us to your tea party...I love the purple theme in the cuisine. I have Victorian and Alice in Wonderland tea parties from time to time. What kind of tea did you drink?

[@AlwynOak]

Why thankyou my love! Ooo a Victorian tea party sounds great I have get to try that one!! There is so much you can do what that!✨😊 For tea I used Lady Grey Tea. It's like English breakfast but with a slight orange hint to it! Have a lovely day 🌳✨😊
