piece of cake

leviettemoussetowelThese sweet towels, cleverly folded to resemble dessert (check out Le Viette’s site for pudding, trifles, and more), would be perfect frosting for a tea party, or a children’s soiree.  Your bathroom guests will be so curious that they’ll wash up just to sneak a peek.
