More Sweets for the Sweetest day of the Year-Valentine's Day.  Some people are so brilliant with dessert!  Which one would your sweetheart prefer?

Ahhhhhh, M&M's, KitKats and chocolate cake!  It would be a shame to cut into it!   From the Post: "Valentine Candy cake is Darn Good Chocolate Cake filled and frosted with chocolate buttercream. Roses are gumpaste. Kitkats, M&M's and purchased ribbon. Happy Valentines Day"  SOURCE  

 What do you think of this 3 tiered KitKat cake? Beautiful!   (couldn't find the source)
 

 A candy bar topiary? How Sweet!  Pin the candy onto a foam piece, add a dowel and place in a bucket. Put something heavy in the bottom of the bucket to hold it up. SOURCE

 Think this is a cupcake? Think again!  It's a edible cupcake box. Both the top and the bottom are edible and filled with sweet treats. You've got to see the tutorial-So Cute! SOURCE

 Chocolate Dipped Strawberry Heart Marshmallows. Fun edible centerpiece SOURCE

 What a great idea  for a smores and so much easier than roasting the marshmallow over a flame/fire. Another cute idea for a Valentine's Day treat (or any other day of the year) See how it's done   SOURCE

Valentine's Day Cakes - Excellent Valentine's Day Dessert Recipes

I love a beautiful cake/dessert!  Especially when it tastes delicious. We've found some real "show stoppers" here.  You know....you eat with your eyes first!  We found lots of cakes using ruffled fondant (They are so pretty) and we found a lot of people making cakes using graduated layers or color, also called ombre.  We chose the pink ones for this post in honor of Valentine's Day.

This is my favorite of the bunch. A chocolate cake surrounded with pink and white chocolate covered pretzel sticks.  Being the huge fan of pink, as I am, this one just caught my eye. Yum! SOURCE

 I really like banners on cakes like this.   SOURCE
