Tea Party Scones

Today I am sharing a fun recipe for banana scones. These tea party scones have chocolate chips in them, but you can omit them or even add nuts if you want.
I made these tea party scones the other day and they bring back so many memories of celebrating spring. My daughter and I have hosted a number of tea parties over the years from kids parties to graduation teas, family teas and mother’s day teas.
Tea party menu
- Serve tea party sandwiches made with cucumber and cream cheese, or small ham sandwiches and PB & J sandwiches work too.
- Scones with whipped cream or clotted cream if you want to try making it yourself.
- Cookies and small fruit servings make a fun and festive accompaniment.
- Tea of course! It is good to have a few flavors available and we like serving lemonade too just as an alternative.
Tea Party Decorations
- Flowers are always a nice addition but they can be tissue paper or faux flowers too!
- Linens on the table are a must in my opinion.
- Cute springtime crafted favors on the place setting always look nice.
- Cinnamon and Sugar Scones – These delicious scones are easy to make and great for brunch or breakfast.
- Blueberry Scones – A lovely blueberry scones recipe with a light lemon icing.
- Pumpkin Scones – One of our favorite recipes made with pumpkin and spice.

Ahh, you’re my hero for using chocolate chips and not raisins. And where did you get those chips? They have such a cool shape! I want some!
I’m so into tea parties. I’m not a tea drinker, but I love the idea of a tea party.
They were milk chocolate chips from See’s candy. Absolutely heavenly 🙂
Tea parties are so fun! I love any excuse to make scones 🙂
Agreed. I really should make them more often Ashley!
Oh how yummy and sweet!~ These remind me of a tea house I used to take my Mom too when we lived in South Florida. It was so charming and so good!
