purple cakesWe like cake. We like high tea.  We like kids get­ting edu­ca­tion. And we like the col­our purple, Whoopi Gold­berg not with­stand­ing. So we’re def­in­itely keen on Purple Cake Day this Sunday March 10.

“Cel­eb­rate Purple Cake Day with High Tea at the Coron­a­tion Café. Come along to one of our four sit­tings for a mar­vel­lous selec­tion of yummy Roy­al Wind­sor jelly scapes, crown jew­elled sweets, club sand­wiches with a twist and more. Purple Cake Day is a char­ity event that sup­ports chil­dren in devel­op­ing coun­tries to get the edu­ca­tion they need to change their lives. This year they will sup­port kids in Haiti, Nepal, and Kenya.”

With bak­ing an assort­ment of places around town, this looks deli­cious and fun. Also, as an added bonus, the Coron­a­tion Cafe inside the Museum of Wel­ling­ton City & Sea is nice and spa­cious, so you will not have the pan­icked worry about break­ing some­thing trips to high tea at Martha’s Pantry can bring. Need more con­vin­cing? Here’s a fly­er.
