Made today at my in-house food camp with the grandbabes. A little haphazard looking, but just ask the kids...I had fun! Youth is so wasted on the young.

We gave out these spoons as part of my Daughter's 10th birthday party formal tea party treat bags. I added the spoons to the other treat bag favours and included a recipe#16632 too. I picked up some cheap tea cups and each girl got their own tea cup to take home too. Thanks for sharing!
