So this story starts with a message from Sharnel Dollar asking me if I would like to help her out on a shoot she was doing for Adore magazine.
Come on you guys know what my answer was even without seeing all the gorgeous pictures on this page. Sharnel Dollar Designs Styling + Naomi V Photography + a host of other amazing providers is always going to = a gorgeous result.
Yup I jumped at the chance.
Now I can only take credit here for making the macarons, scones and melting moments, and the recipes for the scones and melting moments are courtesy of Sharnel Dollar. But I am very proud and excited to have helped out at all.
Oh and any of you readers from the US who might want to try out the scone (biscuit) recipe - lemonade is what we call clear soda...7 up would be a suitable replacement, and it is a super easy recipe. Really, really easy fast scones.
Check out the whole high tea fit for a Queen (starting page 96) including the recipes by clicking on this link.
In fact check out the whole magazine - it's online and free and has some gorgeous stuff in it.

Macaron Recipe
How adorable! It all looks absolutely divine :D Love the mismatched crockery!
ReplyDeleteLooks fab!
ReplyDeleteWell done! It's just so gorgeous
ReplyDeleteOh I'm so glad you mentioned the bit about lemonade = 7up for us girls here in the states. *wink* I imagine it would make QUITE a difference in the end result. Thanks for including me in the mention - loved your recap!! (would LOVE to be close enough to work with Sharnel in person).
ReplyDeleteWow how exciting! It all looks amazing, such a pretty setup. Your macs look perfect. I remember asking for a lemonade while I was in New York, what I got was very different to what I was expecting.
ReplyDeleteDo americans not say lemonade?? I didnt know that! This is truly gorgeous - love the soft pastel styling! Beautiful!

Oh, I recall seeing those melting moments and doing a little bit of melting myself! Can't beat them. Top Job Linda! x
ReplyDeleteWell done, everything looks fantastic. The scones are a plate of pure perfection!
ReplyDeleteWow, Linda, CONGRATS to you for getting to showcase your talent! The scones look delicious, and the aqua macarons~DIVINE!
ReplyDeleteI just tried the macaron recipe out of Adore yesterday and had my first macaron success! (Third attempt). Have been looking at your blog for ideas of other flavours to try - next stop chocolate!
ReplyDeleteKeep up the great work and thanks for sharing.
