Valentines Day Treats

Valentines Day Treats

Valentine’s Day felt like the perfect opportunity to show the amazing women of Simple Kneads just how much they mean to us. We wanted to do something thoughtful, personal, and made with love.

Tristaun, Shiloh, Baylin, and Pipo got to work and decided to make the girls a special jelly sandwich lunch with their favorite jellies. They used valentine themed cutters to add a personal touch to them! 

Want to Make Your Own?

You do not need to wait for Valentine’s Day to surprise someone you love. This is an easy, fun way to brighten anyone’s day.

Here’s how to do it:

  1. Start with your favorite Simple Kneads loaf and toast it to your liking.

  2. Use a cookie cutter in any shape you choose. We used hearts for Valentine’s Day, but stars, flowers, or even simple circles work beautifully.

  3. Spread your favorite jelly between the slices


    **Creative Tip From Baylin**
    Cut a smaller shape out of the top slice so the jelly shows through the top of the sandwich. If you want to add color to your display of mini sandwiches, don't put the top slice on some of them and leave the jelly exposed 

It is simple, thoughtful, and guaranteed to bring a smile.

Sometimes love looks like grand gestures. Sometimes it looks like a heart-shaped jelly sandwich made with care. Either way, it is the little moments that matter most.

Watch the video to see the fun unfold and maybe get inspired to create a sweet surprise of your own.

Millet is a naturally nutrient rich grain that stands out for being more alkalizing than many commonly consumed grains, which tend to be more acid forming in the body. Because of this, it has long been appreciated in traditional diets as a gentle, balancing staple.
