Looking for fun Valentine’s Day treats for the kids? Or, some little decorating touches to bring Cupid into your Casa?
At Crate & Barrel (Level 2), I became smitten by these little canisters of hot chocolate mix — and not just because of the cute packaging!
Not your standard hot cocoa!
If you look closely, you’ll see what grabbed my attention. This hot chocolate turns pink! This would make a sweet after school Valentine’s Day surprise for the kids! I just may have to head back…
A Surprise Pink Drink
You can serve up your pink hot chocolate in these Valentine’s Day themed full size mugs and minis.
The mugs come in full and mini sizes.
For an eco-friendly little gift for the kids, use one of these heart dishtowels to wrap up some heart shaped cookie cutters. Serve them with the promise to spend an afternoon baking together.
Dishtowels make great eco-friendly gift wrap!
Comes as a set of three
Over at Williams-Sonoma (Level 4), you can add a festive feel to a family Valentine’s Day dinner by capping it off with dessert on little heart plates. Let the heart become a surprise reveal once everyone eats their dessert. Or, leave out a few of these little plates as a Valentine’s Day decorating touch. Line up three in a row on a coffee table or display them in a small stack.
A sweet find on the plate once the dessert disappears….
Leave a surprise little message for your Valentine with these mini iced vanilla cookies.
Williams-Sonoma also offers everything you need to make cookies, even if time isn’t on your side. Start with a cookie mix and heart cutters.
Homemade but with fewer steps…
