Vegan-Approved Gifts for Your Valentine
Vegans show their love every day through their actions against cruelty to animals. But Valentine’s Day calls for a special celebration of that love—whether it’s for a friend, a family member, or your lover. Here are some gift ideas that’ll make the people in your life swoon (or you can treat your animal-loving self!):
Heart Shaped Sugar Cookies (Vegan and Gluten-Free)
Ditch the dairy ingredients and gluten and amp up the love with these gluten-free and vegan sugar cookies. Your significant other will be impressed that you baked something (note: they are very easy to make) and will feel the love with every bite of these heart-shaped cookies.
Valentine’s Day Temporary Tattoos
For the kid at heart, these temporary Valentine’s Day tattoos will leave a lasting impression. So many tattoo packages are available that it may be difficult to choose only one way to express your devotion.
Vegan/GF Heart Marshmallow

Warm up your hands and volunteer to give your lover a sensual massage—with cruelty-free oil, of course. You’ll have him or her melting in the palm of your hands—and smelling great!
Intense Anatomical Chocolate Hearts
If your love is truly real, check out this package from Lagusta’s Luscious, which includes eight solid anatomical chocolate hearts.

Or you can try PETA’s Valentine’s Day Vegan Chocolate Heart Box.
