Cupkates is such a great addition to Tivoli Village. It is located on the 2nd floor of The Market and once you spot it, you will wish you were a little girl so that you can have your own tea party there. (Seriously, even some of the dads were jealous).
My daughter was invited to a 5 year old's birthday party there for 10 girls. Once my daughter saw the place, her eyes lit up... A REAL princess tea party with real tea cups and everything. Kate, the owner, was the one entertaining the excited little girls and she did an amazing job. One of the girls was actually acting a little bratty, and I overheard Kate kindly say "princesses act like this...", and who doesn't want to be a princess???
Before they sat down for their tea party, they each dressed up in a beautiful princess dress and chose a hat to wear from the wall. Then they got in a line behind Kate and walked around the second floor waving their princess waves while the parents snapped photos of the entourage. Then, when they returned they sat around the table and did a craft. They had lunch, and concluded the party with cake. (At this time, the parents had their own little break to enjoy a glass of wine and adult convo at The View Wine Bar & Kitchen across the way).
We joined the girls in time to sing happy birthday and after they ate their cake, Kate sprinkled "fairy dust" on all of them. They had a blast. When I checked in on Yelp, I noticed a yelp deal for a dozen cupcakes so I took advantage of it. Not only does Kate throw an awesome party, she makes awesome cupcakes as well. The dozen mini cupcakes came in 6 different flavors and every single one of them were delicious. I should know, because I ate half of the box last night. I can't wait to return!!
