My Sweet Cup of Tea*
Let your guests enjoy a sweet cup of tea with our adorable mini porcelain cup favor. Each My Sweet Cup of Tea favor pairs a small porcelain tea cup with its own matching saucer, so it sits at a place setting like a quiet invitation to slow down and stay a while. It is delicate, it photographs beautifully, and because it is porcelain rather than paper, it travels home in a handbag and turns up again on a kitchen shelf holding rings, paper clips or a single tealight.
Included with each porcelain tea cup and saucer is a "Pretty Sweet" sugar cube adorned with shoes, purse or floral designs, the sort of detail a guest picks up and shows to the person beside her before she can stop herself. The glassine tea bag is decorated with satin ribbon and accented with a small rose, and an optional personalized label is also available on the tea bag, so your names, your date or one short line of your own wording reaches every guest before the first sip. Enclosed inside each bag is your choice of Earl Grey, Green Tea or Chamomile.
Place each tea bag on each plate for your guests during your wedding reception or bridal tea party, and the favor quietly does three jobs at once: it dresses the table, it points each guest to her seat when the label carries a name, and it sends everyone home with something they will actually keep. Bridal showers, baby showers, Mother's Day lunches, garden parties, retirement teas and afternoon get-togethers all take to My Sweet Cup of Tea the same way, because a cup and saucer never feels like a throwaway.
Every label is personalized in-house by HansonEllis, in business since 1999, so the wording you type is the wording that reaches your table. Add your personalization text above, choose your quantity, and give your guests a sweet cup of tea to remember the day by.

Care and use
- The cup and saucer are porcelain, so handle and transport them the way you would any china favor.
- Each glassine tea bag holds loose tea and a small rose accent, so set the bags out close to the event rather than weeks ahead.
How the My Sweet Cup of Tea is personalized
- Choose your tea for the bags inside the favor: Earl Grey, Green Tea or Chamomile.
- If you want the optional personalized label, type the wording you want on the tea bag label in the personalization fields on this page and keep it short, because the label is small.
- We personalize the labels in-house and ship your favors insured by UPS, FedEx or USPS after the production time you choose at checkout. An optional proof is available on request (a proof service fee applies).
Ways to use My Sweet Cup of Tea
- Set one tea bag on each plate so the favor also acts as the place card when the label carries a guest's name.
- Line the cups up along a dessert or coffee table so guests collect one on the way out.
- Use the saucer under the cup as a tiny tray for the sugar cube, so the whole favor reads as one piece.
- Give a single cup as a thank-you to your mothers, grandmothers or bridal party at the rehearsal.
- Keep a few spares back for the guests who ask, and use the leftovers as hostess gifts afterwards.

Which one should I choose
A tea-themed favor can be a bag of loose tea that gets used up and forgotten, or a cup and saucer that stays in the cupboard.
| My Sweet Cup of Tea | Choose it when you want the full table moment: a porcelain cup and saucer, a decorated sugar cube and a ribboned tea bag on every plate. |
|---|---|
| A tea bag favor on its own | Choose it when the favor only needs to be the tea and the table already has its own styling. |
| A candy or chocolate favor | Choose it when the favor is meant to be eaten at the table rather than kept. |
For a wedding reception or bridal tea where the table setting matters, the porcelain cup and saucer favor is the one guests photograph and take home.
