Totally Original, DIY Heart-Shaped Food
Updated: Jan. 06, 2020Serve a little love this Valentine's Day with bacon, potatoes, cake, and other food in the shape of you-know-whats.
Bacon Hearts
Why didn’t we think of this: shape bacon into hearts before baking, and they’ll hold their form from oven to plate.
Roasted Potato Hearts
Everyday potatoes go cute with this simple recipe. Make a whole batch of hearts, or just add a few to a side dish of regular cubed spuds. Lovers of DIY will like making these Christmas presents, too!
Pepperoni Hearts
Cut out tiny little hearts with a cookie cutter or scissors, and even pizza gets romantic! Alternate plan: call your local pizzeria and ask if you can order a whole pie shaped like a heart.
Surprise Heart Cake
Don’t show all your hearts at once—save one for a dramatic finale when you slice into this gorgeous, showstopper cake. If you’re looking to make a good impression, these personalized gifts will go the extra mile.
Eggs in a Heart
Here’s a fun take on ‘Toad in a Hole’ eggs and toast—simply use a heart-shaped cookie cutter or a knife to make the egg’s holiday-themed hole.
Heart Pancakes
Give pancakes a double dose of Valentine’s flair: red velvet cake flavor plus pretty heart shapes.
