Sweets for the Sweet

Around here, Valentine’s Day is usually pretty understated, celebrated with a nice meal, a glass of good wine, and always … always … something sweet. So here are some of our favorite decadent desserts – perfect for your gluten free valentine!

Gluten Free Turnovers (These take a bit of work, but they certainly say “I love you.”)

Gluten Free Ferrero Rocher (Amazingly simple to make and who doesn’t love these sweet treats.)

Home Made Almond Roca (Nothing says “love” quite like butter – especially when it comes with sugar!)

Sinful Chocolate Mousse Cake (Because there’s just something about romance and chocolate!)

And for those of you in warmer climes:

Sinful Chocolate Mousse Cake: The Freezer Version

Stuffed Raspberries

Happy Valentine’s Day!

Gluten Free Almond Roca

I wish I could photograph the crunch and the sweet toffee goodness of this almond roca – not to mention the buttery caramel scent of my kitchen at the moment! This candy is easy to make – it takes about an hour – and tastes like the real thing. You can add chocolate if you want, but we like it just like this!

This recipe came from a friend of ours from Vancouver B.C.. Thanks Carole!
