This is the first in my new series where Parties and Pastries. I’ll be doing about one video a month covering either a party or a particular pastry, deep diving into everything I think of saying on the topic.

Love hosting videos!! Please could you upload your tiktoks here too xx

[@ceciliatolone]

All my TikToks are like 3 minutes long so I can’t upload them to shorts and I feel like they would be weird uploaded as a regular video but still in vertical format?? Idk I’ve thought about it but I’m not sure what to do

[@daisey6585]

@@ceciliatolone not to worry! Thank you for clarifying x

Looks like your hosting some good ones and some great tips but sadly i dont have that many fun friends. What do you think is a good alcohol free alternative to have at hand that is a bit more fun then water?

[@ceciliatolone]

There are so many fun non alcoholic beverages on the market right now! A lot of no alcohol beers and wines (that are actually good!) and I love a good mocktail. My favorite is lime juice, tonic and unsweetened cranberry juice. It’s a virgin cosmo basically but because it’s not too sweet it doesn’t feel like “just” a soda or juice. I live on them in the summer!
