Love comes in many different forms. Think of Bruce Bogtrotter from Roald Dahl's novel, Matilda. The boy loved chocolate cake so much he finished an entire one on his own!

Whether you're standing outside the store you love or lying in bed with the one you love, what better way to start the morning than with a warm pastry?
