Valentine's Day Cakes & Desserts in Northern Virginia

Valentine's is one of the sweetest weekends of the year, and one of the fastest to book. Whether it is a cake for two or a dessert table for a party, here are ideas and the one piece of timing advice that matters most: order early.

Ideas for the day

Heart cakes — the classic, in romantic palettes with piping or hand-painted detail.
Dessert boxes — a curated mix of treats to gift or share.
For two — a small, special cake rather than a crowd-sized one.
Peruvian pastries — alfajores and milhojas make a lovely, less-expected gift. See Peruvian pastries.

Flavors

Everything is from scratch, so flavor leads. Chocolate, vanilla bean, fruit, or dulce de leche all suit the day. Choose yours at the tasting, or tell us your favorite when you order.
