The Langham London's New Afternoon Tea Is Diamond. Literally.

Mmm, afternoon tea. It doesn't have to look good for us to take an interest, but that's always a bonus. Hence we're currently salivating over the Stephen Webster Bijoux Tea at the Langham Hotel London.

Stephen Webster, for those who don't know, is a jewellery artist, so the tea - which has been inspired by his Murder She Wrote collection - is lovely and bright, or, as the Langham says, "celebrates both British fashion and traditional afternoon tea with transgressive design and literary heritage." No diamonds, unfortunately, but you do get shimmering icing and gold cakes.

Components of the tea include a Crystal Clear Diamond - a lightly perfumed Guinness macaroon with blackcurrant jelly - and the Poison Apple - a red peppercorn and dark chocolate shortbread. Nom. We'll happily forgo the actual jewels for that.
