The Bloom of a Tea Cakes

Jul 11, 2025
 

Infused, Layered, and Lovely

Inspired by Lavender Fields & London Fog

Welcome, dear friend.
There’s something timeless and tender about the tea cake — a little sponge of softness, crafted to be savored slowly with a warm cup in hand. Today, I’m opening the doors to a lesson close to my heart, drawn from the lavender fields of the English countryside and the refined charm of London’s tea culture.

Inside my Cake Course, Lesson 3 is a delicate celebration of flavor, memory, and method — and I’d love to give you a glimpse into this elegant experience.


A Taste of What’s Inside:

In this lesson, you'll discover one of my most beloved bakes: the Lavender London Fog Tea Cake — infused with Earl Grey tea, layered with silky vanilla bean pastry cream, and crowned with a dreamy lavender coconut whip. Soft, slow, and sweetened just right.

But this is more than a recipe — it’s a Bloomery practice. A creative rhythm. A way of baking that nourishes your glow as much as your guests.

The Bloomery Baking Secrets™

Each lesson in my course reveals time-honored tips I’ve lovingly named the Bloomery Baking Secrets — because true baking beauty lies in technique, timing, and a little creative poetry.

Here’s what you’ll learn in this Tea Cake tutorial:

✧ Secret No. 1: Tea in the Milk
"Let the tea speak in whispers, not shouts."
We gently steep Earl Grey in warm coconut milk to infuse flavor — never overpowering, just a fragrant hum that lingers softly in each bite.

✧ Secret No. 2: A Lifted White Brings a Light Heart
Egg whites, whipped to stiff peaks, bring structure and grace to these gluten-free sponges — no gums or starches needed.

✧ Secret No. 3: A Tender Fold Yields a Tender Crumb
Elegance is in the fold. Slow, gentle incorporation keeps the sponge light, airy, and oh-so-soft.

✧ Secret No. 4: Patience Prepares Beauty
Cooling your cake completely lets the structure settle — no rushing, just resting. A rhythm that mirrors the art of slow living.

✧ Secret No. 5: Every Base Is a Bloom in Disguise
From one sponge, many blooms. Swap nut flours, change fillings, infuse new flavors — the possibilities are as poetic as the seasons.

Every ingredient has a purpose.
