The tea cakes are a family recipe. I will be sharing them eventually. The petit fours were especially simple. I did have some complications but they were caused by time constraints and not by the instructions.
I made a cream cheese pound cake on Friday and let it rest. Then I cut thin slices of the cake and cut squares out of the slices. I made a batch of whipped vanilla buttercream and layered the cake squares with buttercream and then let them set in the fridge.
About an hour before I left for the shower I melted some vanilla candy melts and dipped the petit fours. I let them set up and then packed them up and headed out.
They looked so lovely on the table. I wish I had a picture of the whole table, but I didn't think about it.
I'm late posting the weekly menu. I had to do a little reorganizing with it to account for dinner at my house Tuesday instead of at Yaya's house. My brother requested calzones which were supposed to be Monday's dinner so I just pushed it to Tuesday and added our missed meal from last week for Monday night.
