Looking for some Valentines Day inspiration? We've put together some easy ideas for this Valentines.
Love Heart Shortbread
One of the easiest biscuit recipes I reckon, adapted here to make swirly and marbled heart biscuits. The sweetest gift or self indulgent treat to fill a jar with this month.
- 125g/4oz unsalted butter, softened
- 55g/2oz caster sugar, plus extra to finish
- 180g/6oz plain flour
Origami Hearts
Another one of my sweet shop stripey paper bag projects, this time it’s a little love heart token to share with friends or pop a little note inside for a loved one. if you don’t have your own paper bag supply here’s a link to the bags in our shop.

A bit of a speedy video but I hope you can follow! Before you start folding you need to make sure the bag is a perfect square by trimming of the excess on the top of the bag.
Until 14th February we are popping an origami heart in all web orders.
