Tea cake? Great image.

Belita is closer, but I like Norma's guess. Generalize the cupcake.

And thank you, Norma. ^-^

Sweet Tee?

Not quite, Merkey. It is an answer in the form of "__ and __".

tea and cake?

Throughout the comments I'm seeing all the right words, but I'm waiting for the right combination. It is tee and __. You guys have got this. You'll get it. ^-^

Oh! Tea and crumpet?

I thought of tea and crumpet but then I looked up crumpet and crumpets are flat and look like an English muffin.

Artistic license :)

Ha! I totally agree, but sadly, it's not it. What's a general word for baked goods? I've heard the full phrase relate to teatime. I think it may be more popular in England, but the phrase isn't unheard of in the U.S.

There you go, Kristen. Don't you just love artistic license?

Tea and pastries?

No. Keep trying. Hint: how do these pastries, cakes, and other baked goods taste? That will give you the word.

Tea and sugar?

No...

Do you guys just want me to tell you? I will still let you guess if you want to, but if you want me to tell you, I will oblige.

I give up.

I guess it's not Tea & Cake, since you already mentioned cake. Tea & Sweets?

Tea and sweets! You got it, Kristen! Or, actually, it's tee and sweets, but you got it! Well done! I commend you all for your perseverance. I never meant for it to be so difficult; perhaps the phrase isn't all that popular.

Never heard it before. :) Besides tea and crumpet, the only tea phrase I was familiar with was Tea and Sympathy. But that didn't seem to fit. Unless you felt sympathy for the golfer when her ball landed in the water hazard.

Or in the cupcake. lol

:)
