2Treat yourself
Ben and Jerry will always find time to keep me company on Valentine’s Day. As much as I love their plethora of ice cream flavors, sometimes I just want to dig into the toppings. That’s why Ben & Jerry’s Cookie Dough Chunks are a must have… especially my personal favorite: Half Baked® with chunks of cookie dough and brownie batter.

3Try this sustainable afternoon pick-me-up
Does anyone else agree that chocolate and coffee is a match made in heaven? That’s why Lily’s Sweets and Cycletown Coffee Roasters work so well together. While Lily’s uses Fairtrade cocoa to create their signature milk and dark chocolate bars, Cycletown’s Fairtrade coffee beans create the perfect roast, ready to enjoy with a side of sweetness.
