It was a special day for The Hatter & the Hare family as Morgan turned one in the first week of January. With the Christmas Holidays just ramped down, the THATH team spent the early afternoon on the 5th of January preparing a simple spread for the birthday boy and his 40+ guests. With a Forest Fox theme as the main inspiration, the table spread was bedecked with white & orange-coloured balloons and in the middle was a fox-shaped balloon. The kitchen and pastry teams were also hard at work and rolled out these savoury and sweet treats in perfect bite-sized form: Savouries:
- Curried Egg Sandwich
- Pork Jowl Terrine
- Beetroot & Broccoli Fritters
- Pressed Lamb Shoulder
- Beetroot-Cured Salmon & Goat’s Cheese Terrine
The kitchen team also prepared a mini grazing station with cured meats, house-made dips, bread & crackers and a fruit platter. Sweets:
- Chocolate Cupcakes with Orange & Teal Buttercream
- Orange Macarons with Chocolate Ganache
- Orange & Black Donuts
- Chocolate Mousse Cups
- Lemon Meringue Petit Four Tarts
- Petit Four Lemon Tart with Orange Macaron
- Mini Vanilla Slices
- Mini Vegan Carrot Cake Slices
- Mini Vegan Brownie Slieces
And the pièce de résistance, is an exquisite custom-made cake inspired by the Forest Fox Theme, intricately created by Bella Cake Art.
