With snippets from conversations that I have been so lucky to enjoy with my guests, I hope, with their help, to unpack the truly great British love of tea as well as explore a few sections from my book ⁠"Tea. The Great British answer to everything".⁠

She’s back! This is another First for us at Fuelled by Tea, with Victoria joining us in person during her trip around Australia and also as our first guest of our 10 Minutes With Tea Series. (Ok not quite 10mins on our first attempt, but certainly a shorter format than normal)

From the intricate illustrations to the high-quality materials and the attention to detail, Victoria shares with us the incredible amount of work and love that went into each piece.

Victoria also shares some insights into her recent trip back to Australia, where the brand idea originally began. Learn what parts of AUS she would take back to her UK studio if given the chance, and the creativity top ups that the trip is bringing to life.

So grab a cup of tea and a biscuit, and join us for this delightful conversation with Victoria Eggs. Whether you're a fan of minimalist design, digital graphic design, or creative vision, you'll find plenty of inspiration and joy in this episode.

High Tea Society - The platform for all things high tea!

High Tea Society - The platform for all things high tea!

Whether you call it High Tea or Afternoon Tea there is so much to love about the luxurious social art form of combining exquisite tea with tiers of decadent sweets and savouries. Speaking with Michelle Milton, founder of High Tea Society, learning about how the High Tea Society came about and grew to the International platform it is now, was illuminating on all fronts. 

From how her studies and love of photography played a part, to how she scaled her business platform internationally and I even learned about the High Tea event that she herself would love to attend. I left the conversation with a rich understanding for the combination of something you love, coupled with a business savvy that I’m sure everyone will be able to take a slice from and apply to their own frontiers.
