Sweets for my Sweet on Valentine’s Day

Valentine’s Day is only 10 days away. Have you found the present for your loved one yet? If not, you might be interested in some of the sweets listed below. It doesn’t always have to be something expensive. Over the last few years hubby and I agreed that even a box of chocolate and flowers, something that doesn’t cost the world, is enough. I know it’s Valentine’s Day and all but really you should think of your loved ones daily and not just on this particular day.

Bord Bia, the Irish Food Board, has a tantalisingly sweet selection that your loved one will adore.
