Cocobella Creamery

All month long, Cocoabella Creamery will be serving up red velvet cupcake flavored ice cream as a Valentine’s Day special. With an oat milk base, the ice cream is cream cheese flavored and mixed with chocolate shavings and chunks of freshly baked cupcakes. We’re drooling already! Choose the new flavor for a scoop or two, build an ice cream sandwich, or pick up a pint to-go. You can’t go wrong!
Verón

Conversation hearts have been a Valentine’s Day staple since the days of leaving cute cardboard Valentines on your crush’s desk in school. This season, Verón has put a spin on the nostalgic treat, offering their plant-based French macarons in a 5-pack box with cute sayings. Pick up locally or order online before February 10th for delivery.
