Holz Teatime Cupcake-Set

The four cupcakes are chunky enough for little hands to stack and swap, and the painted frosting hasn't chipped after weeks of daily tea parties. Watching my two-year-old hand one to her teddy and say "careful, hot" was worth every penny.

My niece has been serving these cupcakes at her little tea parties all week, and the pretend play keeps her busy for ages. The painted frosting details on each wooden cupcake are bright and sweet, and they've survived plenty of drops onto the floor.

The four cupcakes have held up through months of tea parties with my three-year-old, and she now narrates whole conversations between the "guests." Paint hasn't chipped even after being dropped on tile a dozen times.
