You may already know that sometimes Valentine’s Day gets a hard time in our house. That’s because Ben and I celebrate our anniversary the day before (at the time of writing this, coming up 13 years!).

For us, the day is more about small gestures.

And what could be a smaller gesture than a small bite?

I don’t know about you, but I could happily never eat a proper meal again and instead indulge in appetizers.

There’s much to love about them – not the least being how easy they are to eat.

They also take a lot less effort for their impact – kind of proving the truth behind the saying that the best things come in small packages.

If you’re sold on celebrating Valentine’s Day with an appetizer or ten in hand, these 21 Valentine’s appetizers feature the savory and the sweet.

(And if you love the charcuterie boards and want more, you’ll want to check out these sweet and savory Valentine’s Day charcuterie boards).

Valentine's appetizers

These 21 appetizers will kick off your Valentine’s Day celebrations with both flair and flavor.

If you want to keep the celebrations going with a special meal, consider ideas from these date night dinners, like cast iron rib eye or surf and turf.

Then you’ll want some Valentine’s desserts, like heart-shaped strawberry hand pies – or maybe a Valentine’s cake to finish off (I know I’m keen on the chocolate cherry sour cream Bundt cake!).

Don’t forget these pink non-alcoholic drinks.
