Valentine’s Dessert Board

Valentine’s Dessert Board

Tomorrow is the DAY!  We are having guests for dinner at a local restaurant and returning home for dessert.  What better way to celebrate the day than a Valentine’s dessert board?Someone asked me how you begin styling one of these boards, so I thought I would share a couple of my “in progress” photos.  I played around a bit with different Valentine’s dishes and candies.  You will see in my final photos that I did change things up a little bit.  This was a great way to use those conversation hearts I used in my Easy Valentines Flower Arrangement.  I was almost finished at this point, but I did want to add a few more little conversation hearts to cover up the edges of the dishes.  Here it is, all ready to serve up to guests!  Can you spot the Valentine cookies I shared at my Conversation Heart Valentine’s Tablescape?  I didn’t bake any of the items for my dessert board.  The Celebration Le Macaron French Pastries shop was the perfect spot to find fresh macarons and sweet chocolates.Look at those velvety L-O-V-E chocolates!  I tucked those among my petit fours and chocolate covered cheesecake bites from Publix.  Pepperidge Farm Pirouettes add a different shape to the display.  Sweet little chocolate and shortbread heart shaped cookies nestle next to petit fours and shimmery heart-shaped chocolates.  Soft pink-colored macarons alongside chocolate-covered mint Oreos offer guests every kind of Valentine treat!  I hope you have a wonderful Valentine’s Day celebrating LOVE!!
