However, be careful, as it is very sweet.

Tea Party Tips
Entertain your guests with a Teaposy centerpiece.  Using a pedestal cake plate, invert a small glass bowl on cake plate. 

Cover cake plate with Spanish moss available at a craft store or floral shop.  Stud the moss with fresh pansy blooms shortly before your tea party begins. 
Place glass teapot on inverted bowl and brew Teaposy.  It's great fun to watch it bloom.

For a tea party favor, place a Teaposy blossom in a small box and wrap with brightly colored gift-wrap and ribbon.  Place a wrapped box at each place setting.  Add gift tag as place card.
