A Tea Time taste of fall

You know how I said the other day that I couldn't wait for the fall magazines to appear on the newsstand? Well, forget the newsstand. Turns out, the first taste of fall landed in my mailbox the other day, and it was the September/October 2025 issue of Tea Time magazine, and I couldn't be happier! Doesn't that Honeynut & Masala Chai Bundt Cake on the cover get you in the mood to bake?

Inside, there are so many yummy-sounding recipes that I cannot wait to try. I’m planning to host several tea parties for small groups of friends this fall, and I’m going to need some gluten-free recipes, so those gluten-free treats are especially appreciated. In this spread, the Fig Crumb Bars and Mini Pumpkin Cakes aren’t gluten-free, but the Brown Sugar-Cashew Fudge is, so … yay!

And are any of you in a book club? I’m not, but doesn’t this Bookish Teatime in the library sound like an elegant idea? As usual, there are tempting treats galore in this magazine, but the first fall issue each year is always a favorite, and this one is no exception!
