Valerie Confections in Glendale Offers Lovely Afternoon Tea

If you love afternoon tea but want a more relaxed al fresco and more reasonably priced option, head to Valerie Confections in Glendale for a beautiful outdoor tea.

Dress as comfy as you like and head to the outdoor garden full of flowers and fauna to enjoy a peaceful relaxing tea.

Choose from English Breakfast, Jasmine or Hibiscus Bliss tea served hot or cold. Enjoy fresh crème fraiche scones with lemon curd, salted butter and seasonal jams. Also included are delicious sandwiches including heirloom tomato, egg salad and cucumber all served on fresh milk bread.
For dessert, guests can choose from rose petal, lemon, orange marzipan, lavender Earl Grey or matcha white chocolate petit fours or champagne, chocolate, espresso or ginger dark chocolate petit fours.

After our tea, owner Valerie Gordon took us behind the scenes to tour the much larger than we thought bakery. The front section offers seasonal treats including packaged chocolates that make great holiday gifts and the back areas are used for office space and a number of kitchens.

Valerie Confections is the perfect place to unwind and enjoy a nice tea anytime of the year and for $25 you can’t beat the price.

Located at Valerie Confections Bakery at 1936 W. Glenoaks Boulevard in Glendale. Call 213.739.8149 for reservations.
