Felicity's Party Treat was introduced in 1992 and retired in 2005. It is associated with the book, Happy Birthday, Felicity!
PC description: Felicity hoped for a small party on her birthday to celebrate spring and her grandfather's visit. You can have just the party Felicity dreamed of! Stack the two glass salvers for a stunning, two-tiered centerpiece. Display the party treats - the great cake, marzipan strawberries, candied lemon and orange slices, and fresh fruit tarts. Arrange the flowers from the birthday bouquet in the five fingers of the quintal vase. A hand-painted figurine, inspired by one made in Derby, England, more than 225 years ago, is the perfect finishing touch.
Felicity's party treats are very nice and very well-made. The set comes with two real glass salvers which are very heavy and authentic looking and feeling; a cake; tiny little candied fruits; a porcelain vase; flowers; and a "china" shepherdess. The food is very realistic looking and well-made- not at all plasticy looking or feeling. It's made from hard plastic type material, but not cheap looking in the least. The vase looks like a miniature version of real ones of that time and it is made from porcelain and is probably breakable. The flowers are kind of difficult to fit in the vase and are not very realistic looking. The shepherdess is made some lightweight plasticy material and not very detailed looking. The food is the best part of the set and I give it A+
Warning: This set is very breakable! A glass salver broke despite being wrapped in bubble wrap. It fell out of the closet onto a hardwood floor. The shepherdess's head broke off when a gust of wind blew the window blinds onto the box! Even the flowers lose their petals and the stems break.
Caroline's party treat pewter dishes and mugs pair well authentically with this set.
