Looking for Vegan Valentine’s Day ideas? There’s a one-stop shop for Chicago peeps who want a cruelty-free heart day.<\/h2>\n

The super-awesome Natalie Slater of Bake and Destroy<\/span><\/a><\/strong><\/span> is teaming up with Paper Moon Pastry<\/span><\/a><\/strong><\/span> to host a cruelty-free event chock full of vegan Valentine’s Day ideas! My Vegan Valentine is an indie market, and Natalie is going to be doing cooking demonstrations from her awesome new vegan cookbook: Bake and Destroy: Good Food for Bad Vegans<\/span><\/a><\/strong><\/span>.<\/p>\n

Of course, you don’t have to be vegan<\/strong><\/span><\/a> to enjoy delicious baked goods and indie crafts, so this market is really a great option for any Chicago folks looking for unique Valentine’s Day ideas!<\/p>\n

Vegan candy and baked goods make sense, but what about other Valentines’ Day ideas, like gifts? There are actually a lot of animal products that can hide in store-bought products. Vegans don’t use any animal products, so that means no wool, feathers, silk, or leather. All of the goodies at My Vegan Valentine are going to be 100% cruelty free!<\/p>\n

Seriously, if it weren’t a 14 hour drive for me, I would totally be at the event, if for nothing more than the amazing-looking menu that Paper Moon Pastry is cooking up:<\/p>\n

chili and cornbread
\nvegan hot chocolate
\nfresh baked granola
\nred velvet cupcakes
\ncardamom rosewater cupcakes
\nchocolate lavender cupcakes
\nmexican hot chocolate cupcakes (also gf)
\nmocha brownies (also gf)
\noatmeal chocolate chip cookies
\nginger molasses cookies
\npeanut butter chocolate chip cookies
\nsnickerdoodle cookies<\/p>\n
