The only place Recession and Romance should be close to each other is in the dictionary.

How do you show your sweetheart that your heart is full of love for them, when your pockets are...well...empty?

Read below for my Valentine's on a Dime tips....

1) Were you wondering what to do with the signature brown box leftover (and empty of course) from your holiday Carousel Cake order? Decorate it using this article for ideas and then fill it with love notes! Write down all the reasons you love your beau, 365 reasons for each day of the year!

2) Send your loved ones virtual goodies like these cute Valentine's Day themed Facebook gifts. And while you are already there, don't forget to "friend" Carousel Cakes on Facebook or join the Carousel Cakes Facebook Fan Club.

3) The best way to your sweetie's heart is through their tummy. Check out this romantic and delicious Valentine's Day menu and get cooking. Don't forget to order a Heart Red Velvet or Chocolate Mousse Supreme Cake with Hearts for dessert. Order now so it gets there in time for the big day. 

4) The most heartfelt thing you can do for Valentine's Day is donate to a charity of your sweetheart's choice on their behalf. Or order a Heart Red Velvet in the month of February and we will donate $2.00 per cake to the American Heart Association!
 
Remember diamonds may last forever, but a Carousel Cake is so good it'll be gone in minutes...
