Valentine's Day 2018: 5 Romantic Breakfast in Bed Ideas To Celebrate Love!

There’s something about Valentine’s Day that makes you want to woo the one that makes your heart sing, regardless of how starry-eyed or cynical you may be. But as romantic as the holiday is, it can also be a tad bit predictable. We suggest you break the monotony this 14th February 2018, skip the standard candlelight dinner and treat your sweetheart to something a little different. Make your Valentine's Day special by doing something special for your partner. Dish up a little love for your Valentine first thing in the morning, complete with some much needed caffeine or even a mimosa! After all, nothing screams “I love you” better than breakfast in bed. It’s the perfect way to set the wheels in motion for a great Sunday and play Cupid on your own turf. Whether it’s a classic dish or something fancy, passionate pancakes or a flirtatious fry-up, breakfast in bed is always a fabulous idea! You could even decorate the tray, bring some flowers, top off their coffee with cacao and cinnamon. If you want to keep it simple yet cheesy, serve heart-shaped eggs on toast with the help of a cookie cutter or take it up a notch and bake a batch of apple roses.
