Our 5 Best Bakes for Valentines

With Valentine’s Day around the corner, we’re all seeing the not-so-subtle reminders beginning to adorn shop windows. Hearts, roses and every shade of pink and red. Every year you ask yourself the same question – should I just go with the classic red roses and chocolates? Well perhaps this year you want to go for something different... yes you’ve guessed it, we suggest cake and other bakes!

If you haven’t thought of cake as a Valentine’s gift before, we’ve put together a list of our five favourites from our bakers.

These are bound to be a winner with your Valentine because let’s face it - who doesn’t love cake?! The way to a girl’s heart is through her stomach!

Valentine’s Cupcakes

Who doesn’t love a cupcake? Cute and tasty, treat your significant other to a box of these and they’ll definitely thank you for it. The perfect gift from a secret admirer, you can’t go wrong with a delicious vanilla bean sponge, topped with vanilla buttercream and a fondant heart.
