Valentine’s Day Food Gifts & Presents Ideas

Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, I am sure most of you have made reservations at a romantic restaurant for Valentine’s Day Dinner, why don’t you include a food gift as part of the surprise?

If your talent lies in eating rather than baking, this list of Valentine’s Day Gifts and Presents will come in handy for any festive occasions.

I love to feed people, I love the satisfied look on their face after a big feast, I love how food can always make us happy. Naturally, I always give food gifts to my friends and loved ones.

I know Cupcakes are so yesterday, but it never fails to make me happy so who cares if they are cliche. Be it the pretty cupcakes with fanciful toppings, or the plain ones with a messy and rustic look — it is always nice to see a cupcake. If you want to give cupcakes as part of your Valentine’s Day Gift, Marmalade Pantry has some of the best cupcakes in Singapore. You can also look for customised cupcakes from online bakeries.

Jelly Hearts Cheesecake is a dessert sold in Singapore by online bakeries. Maybe it is the fact that I am not a baker, so the Jelly Hearts recipe seems a little complicated. Basically, each Jelly Heart consists of a cheesecake square base topped with heart shape strawberry piece within the translucent jelly.

There is no nice dinner, fanciful holiday or diamond ring, but you can have my jelly heart.

Even though the title of this post is Valentine’s Day Food Gifts & Presents Ideas, you can also use this guide for other occasions like Christmas Food Gifts, a gift exchange session, or simply as a present to your partner.

Just one thing to note, the food gift should not be your only plan, it is just a nice little surprise. You should have a real Valentine’s Day Gift prepared. Instead of spending money on flowers that never last, why don’t you DIY a chocolate flower bouquet as your Valentine’s Day present for your date? Happy Valentine’s Day!
