The ritual of afternoon tea and scones has been a staple of British culture since the 1800s. It came about during the time of Duchess Bedford when she determined that a spot of tea and a nibble of scone did the trick in keeping her from feeling "peckish" in the middle of the afternoon.
We can't think of a better afternoon snack then a freshly baked scone paired alongside a cup of tea. Luckily, at Sweet Indulgence, we offer both. Plus - one great thing about our scones is that we can bake them for you in mini sizes! This way you can pre-order a variety of our most popular flavors, in miniature, to serve at your afternoon tea. Just drop us a line at (217) 352-2433 about 48-hours in advance and we'll have your mini scones ready for pick-up.
Our tea selection
We offer a variety of teas which we carry as a long-standing partnership with another local business, Columbia Street Roastery. Their business spans three generations, dating back to 1951. With a goal of providing customers with the best coffee experience, we can't imagine another brand to serve alongside our freshly baked scones (and many other scrumptious pastries).
