Do you deliver Internationally?

We take the quality and safety of our products seriously, and shipping perishable items overseas can be challenging and may compromise the freshness and quality of the products upon arrival. Therefore, we have made the decision to limit our deliveries to the UK only.  Due to the nature of our Cream Tea and Afternoon Tea Hampers, we are unable to ship food items abroad as they are perishable goods.

Items we ship abroad are the vintage china tea sets and other non perishable goods.  Any questions just ask.
