I took a break from gardening earlier this spring to teat my theory that the “special occasion hobbit cake” would pair perfectly with black tea… and it was delicious! ☕️🍰😋 10/10 Shire seal of approval! If you missed this episode, pop over to our YouTube channel and have a watch! youtu.be/QXqzkQTufEU
