Celebrating Valentine’s Day isn’t just for lovers; host a Valentine’s Day brunch that your family or friends are sure to enjoy.  In the spirit of the holiday, serve decadent foods rich in the labor of love and decorate with festive cupids, hearts of all sizes, and lots of red and pink ribbon in both solids and prints.

Hostess Tips:

It just wouldn’t be Valentine’s without fresh flowers, specifically roses.  Use them to make a beautiful centerpiece or for a change of pace, use individual ones to add a special touch to each place setting by using ribbon to tie a bow around the napkin and a single rose.  

Run by a local bakery and grab some assorted muffins, scones, and pastries. These will not only offer variety, they will look great in your food setting and you should always have items on your menu that you don’t have to bake yourself!

For party favors, purchase some small decorative red bags or boxes to box up leftover truffles and chocolate-covered fruit.
