Menu suggestions for a family Valentine’s Day brunch

Valentine’s Day can be celebrated in countless ways. In 2024, why not celebrate the weekend after February 14 with a delicious, themed family brunch? Here are a few inspiring ideas that’ll make your tastebuds go wild.

THEMED DRINKS

Serve drinks with a pink or red hue to set the mood and stay on the theme. For example, rosé wine, sparkling apple juice with a few drops of grenadine or coffee and hot chocolate with pink whipped cream. You can also treat your family to a strawberry smoothie or milkshake to perfectly complement the rest of the brunch.

FRUITS GALORE

No brunch is complete without a variety of fruits. From whole to pieces and salads to juices, fruits add an essential element to the menu. To keep with the Valentine’s Day theme, serve a selection of red and pink fruits, like strawberries, raspberries, cherries, watermelon, pink grapefruit and pomegranate.

PROTEINS

Spice up your Valentine’s Day brunch with eggs, bacon, cold cuts, pork pâté, salmon (smoked or gravlax), baked beans, cheese, yogurt and more. Don’t forget to present them beautifully on red ceramic plates to add a touch of elegance.

BREADS AND SWEETS

Offer a selection of gourmet bread and sweets such as waffles, toast, croissants, pancakes, French toast, muffins and pastries. Present them on trays decorated with rose petals or red cinnamon hearts, accompanied by tasty jams, coulis’ or jellies in shades of red or pink.

Visit your local grocery stores, bakeries, fruit stores and cheese shops to find all the products you need to make your brunch a success.
