Make breakfast in bed for your loved one
With 23% of Brits planning on making breakfast in bed for a loved one this Valentine’s Day according to our survey (and 13% hoping to experience it themselves), we think this is one of the best and most romantic gestures. Plus you can make it as easy or as elaborate as you want!
Simple Breakfast in Bed Ideas
Serving delicious pastries such as St Pierre Croissants, Pains Au Chocolat and Waffles on a tray with your favourite spreads and some beverages is easy enough to pull together and bring upstairs to treat your partner to breakfast in bed.
You could even go for some lightly toasted slices of our Brioche Loaf and softened French butter if they fancy something more savoury – especially as 42% of people said they would allow this item to be eaten in bed.

If fruit is more of your thing, then how about our take on a classic bread and butter pudding?
