Tim Burton’s sequel to Alice in Wonderland takes us back to Underland in Alice Through the Looking Glass. Alice reunites with her friends for magical adventures all while being pursued by that nasty Red Queen.

These little tea cakes, however, are sweet treats fit for a proper tea party. Blue cupcakes topped with white frosting reminiscent of Alice’s signature attire, they are topped with a red heart as a nod to the Queen of Hearts.
