Crafts & Cake

A little while ago, I had a reunion with two of my best girlfriend’s from University. We often meet up every couple of months to catch up, dress up and drink lots of gin. We decided to meet up in London to go to the theatre but as I was a little under the weather, my friend introduced me to this little beauty.

Biscuit Ceramic Café is in Greenwich, London. It’s a cute little café where you can buy cakes and tea but also design and paint ready made bits of crockery, ornaments and other little bits. When you enter, you can see the selection of items you can paint from mugs and bowls to pet bowls and ornaments. There’s a huge selection of paints, different brushes and tips all over the walls on how to get the perfect colours. The girls opted to do a mug each whilst I fell completely in love with the dog bowls. Me and G are planning to get a puppy very soon so it seemed fitting our pooch should have his own personalised bowl!

Once you have finished scoffing your face with cake and painting your masterpiece, you pop it to the till where the guys at Biscuit will send it off to a kilm. You can pick the piece up in 7 days time or they can post it out to you for an extra charge.

Biscuit is a little pricey though with the cheapest things to paint costing you around £18, but it really does fill an afternoon.  Even if you don’t fancy painting, the café also does a fabulous selection of bagels, sandwiches, homemade cakes and tea to indulge on.

What do you think of little Rufus' bowl?
