i love my uncle… Beefy that is. I was looking for something to write about today, watching Julie and Julia and thinking about food of some sort. Uncle Beefy is one of my favorite bloggers (and a super-talented sweet tooth foodie) so I checked in on him and found these! YUM. Sweetie pies from Williams-Sonoma fashioned after old fashioned whoopie pies. Details and more goodies for your sweetthang below.

Sweetie Pies (pictured above)
Pure edible nostalgia, our heart-shaped treats recall the whoopie pies beloved by kids but with a decidedly sophisticated twist. The sweet valentines come to us from a bakery in Maine that uses local butter and free-range eggs to make individual rich, moist red-velvet cakes that are filled with decadent buttercream in three delicious flavors: chocolate, raspberry and classic vanilla. The pies are individually wrapped and packaged in a ribbon-tied box.

Presonalized Chocolate Heart
Melt that special someone’s heart with our stunning chocolate valentine from the Victoria Pastry Co., a destination bakery in San Francisco’s North Beach neighborhood, specializing in authentic and traditional Italian cakes and confections since 1914. Each exquisite heart is individually hand made for us by a confectionery artist whose meticulous work requires three hours to complete. A truly artistic creation, the hollow heart is molded of Guittard dark chocolate with decorative details and personalization in white- and rose-colored chocolate

Heart Madeliene, Set of 24
Immortalized in French literature, madeleines are even more delightful when they’re crafted in the endearing shape of a heart. A whimsical way to express sweet Valentine’s Day wishes, these buttery little sponge cakes are crafted using a French-inspired recipe and the finest natural ingredients, including custom-blended European chocolate and premium Madagascar Bourbon vanilla. Our exclusive madeleine gift assortment includes four luscious varieties: traditional vanilla and classic chocolate, with and without a rich chocolate coating.

Perfect Ending’s Heart Red Velvet Cake
Red velvet cake is a signature holiday dessert throughout the South, where it has been prized by generations of bakers. Distinguished by its scarlet hue, rich cocoa flavor and velvety, melt-in-your-mouth texture, this vintage cake makes a grand finale for Valentine’s Day celebrations. Our heart-shaped version of the classic cake combines two luscious layers of rich, fudgy devil’s food cake with fluffy vanilla buttercream frosting. From the Perfect Endings vintage cake collection, it is made using premium ingredients, following an old family recipe.
