Valentine's Day Recipes & Desserts

Valentine's Day Recipes & Desserts

Valentine's Day doesn't mean a whole day in the kitchen. All you need is a dinner you can make without rushing and a dessert you can prepare ahead, ideally chocolate. Here you'll find red velvet mini desserts, a chocolate cake for lovers and a chocolate bundt with pomegranate that you can bake the day before. If you want to give something sweet as a gift, bake cupcakes or muffins. For those, our shop has tulip cases with hearts, love-themed sprinkles, edible rose buds and pink Callebaut ruby chocolate.

Quick answer

What should I bake for Valentine's Day?

Something chocolate and small: mini desserts, a chocolate cake for two or a bundt. Red velvet looks like Valentine's thanks to its color, even without decorating. Cupcakes in heart cases make a good gift.

Frequently asked questions

What can I make ahead?

Mainly dessert. Bake the bundt or chocolate cake the day before and keep it covered, a cake with cream in the fridge. In the evening you only cook the main course and have time for your date.

What is ruby chocolate?

Pink chocolate made from ruby cocoa beans, fresh and slightly tart. Its color is natural, with no added colorings. Callebaut RB2 has at least 32.8% cocoa solids and works for glazes, pralines and finishing desserts.

How do I decorate a dessert with edible flowers?

Add dried rose buds or cornflowers to the finished, cooled dessert, ideally right before serving so they don't go soggy on the cream. Use only flowers sold as edible, never flowers from a bouquet.
