Splitting a dessert as you gaze into your beloved’s eyes just screams romance. You know what else screams romance? Not having to share your dessert in the first place! Honestly, it’s one thing to share your life with someone. Where is it written that you have to pony up half of your cake in the process?

It’s long since been the advice of renowned relationship experts that the couple who makes individual dessert portions so they don’t have to share, continue to care.* By making a dessert that only serves two or a dessert designed to be made into individual servings, you can have your cake and eat it too. Don’t worry, you can still feed a forkful of a decadent trifle or comforting apple pie pastry to your Valentine– it just doesn’t have to be a forkful of your portion. 

This Valentine’s Day, here’s to romance, passion and hogging your share of the carrot cake.

*That’s actually not a real thing. It should be though.
