The recently launched Heidi Bakery has put together a special selection of sweet treats for Valentine’s Day.
Including sensuous ingredients such as chocolate, ginger, rosewater and passion fruit, the new selection of cupcakes is available in boxes of 12 and features delicate buttercream roses (also available in a box of 6), love heart sweets or sprinkles. One of the box selections can even be decorated with the words of your choice – so you can make up your own special message!
Decorated in classic Valentine colors, including reds, pinks and chocolate browns, the cupcakes are also offered in special adult versions that contain a splash of liqueur.
Prices vary according to the treat you choose, but there is a Mixed Valentine’s Box which combines a selection of the above, priced at Fr. 80.- for a box of 12.
The deadline for orders for Valentine's day is noon on Saturday, 12 February. As an added bonus Heidi is playing cupid and offering free delivery on Valentine's day between Geneva and Nyon! It is also possible to pick up your order from the bakery in Nyon if you prefer.
