22 Gluten Free Afternoon Teas In The UK

This blog was featured in:

Afternoon teas are growing more and more popular and we certainly don't want to miss out just because of Coeliac or a gluten intolerance! There are SO many places in the UK who can do a cracking gluten free afternoon tea, we actually asked on our Facebook Page where people had had the best afternoon tea so we could compile a list of some places for you guys!

An afternoon tea doesn't have to be a posh afternoon thing either, we made our own at home, made almost entirely out of packet mixes! For some amazing bread we used Bakels bread mix which is some of the best bread we have ever had, for cake Latinos Gourmet vanilla sponge mix. This mix make a lot so we actually made chocolate topped cupcakes and a loaf cake out of it. Sweetpea Pantry brownie mixed made some excellent chocolatey brownies to go along side the sponges.

The only thing we did make from scratch was the scones, using our scone recipe, we would have used Mandy's Gluten Free Scone Mix but we didn't have any in. It is possible to make an afternoon tea entirely from packet mixes, and out of four packet mixes you can easy make 3 or 4 afternoon teas.

Alternatively you can make it entirely yourself too, why not try our scone recipe, redcurrant chocolate cupcakes, swiss roll and bread recipes! Theres no reason you need to be a great cook to make any of it, some simple recipes can make one hell of an afternoon tea!

However, afterall an afternoon tea is something a little bit special so it's worth treating yourself to one every so often, here are just a few places that do afternoon teas gluten free in the UK, there are lots of places listed in our where to eat guide, too many of which do afternoon teas!
