Valentine's Treat FAQs

How long can you store these treats?

Most of these treats can be stored in airtight containers for up to 1 week (minus the smoothies, of course). I like to keep chocolates my no-bake goods in the fridge for optimal texture, but they’re fine on the counter as well. See individual posts for storage specifics on each recipe.

When should I make Valentine’s Day recipes?

All February long! Tis the season, so celebrate early and enjoy these tasty treats to help get you through the dreary winter that seems to drag on right around this time of year. The weekend before Valentine's Day is usually when I'm whipping up the most desserts.

What Valentine's treats should I send with my kid to school?

Quite a few of these treats are nut free, if that’s a concern at your child’s school. I recommend the Easy Valentine Cookies or Raspberry Rice Krispies. Both are super simple to make (the kids can help!) and do not contain and nuts.

For that special someone, your galentines, or a kids Valentine's Day celebration, find a sweet treat that everyone is sure to love. These recipes are easy, decadent and delicious. I promise you won't be disappointed.
