It's Not Too Late To Host A Biggest Morning Tea

There is still time for residents, workplaces, schools and community groups to get involved in Cancer Council's Biggest Morning Tea and help raise funds for Australians impacted by cancer.

For those thinking about hosting an event but unsure where to start, a simple high tea can be an easy and enjoyable way to bring people together while supporting an important cause.

‍

Classic tea-time favourites such as freshly baked scones, finger sandwiches and simple cakes can create an inviting spread without requiring hours in the kitchen. Fluffy scones with jam and cream are a popular choice, while finger sandwiches filled with cucumber and cream cheese, smoked salmon or mayonnaise offer a traditional touch.

‍

Presentation can be your secret weapon, with tiered cake stands making the simplest treats appear elegant. Pick up a selection box of teas to offer your guests a choice, and consider picking up a sparkling beverage for a complementary cold drink. To add a bit of vintage charm, head to the op-shop and pick up some floral china.  

The beauty of Australia's Biggest Morning Tea is that it can be as simple or as elaborate as hosts choose. Whether gathering a few friends around the kitchen table or organising a larger workplace event, every cup of tea shared and every dollar raised contributes to Cancer Council's research, prevention and support programs.
