This Valentine’s Day, couples from Kalamazoo to Key West have a world of choices at their fingertips when it comes to decadent vegan sweet treats that show some love to animals, too. From Kirsch-marinated cherries to sumptuous red velvet cake, PETA’s picks are all approved by Cupid—and chickens and cows. That’s because they’re made with vegan butter and dairy-free milk instead of cow’s milk meant for baby cows and vegan egg replacements instead of eggs from hens who are killed once they’re no longer useful to the industry.

Here are our top treats to surprise your sweetheart this Valentine’s Day, available for shipping nationwide:

Vegan Gluten-Free Red Velvet Sweetheart Cake—Karma Baker

This vegan and gluten-free red velvet wonder features a decadent custard filling with a vanilla bean frosting covered with red, white, and pink Valentine’s sprinkles.

Vegan Heart Cream Tart Cake—Giselle’s Vegan Kitchen

We heart this elegant two-layer cake, which has a light, sugar-free vegan buttercream and is garnished with fresh berries, chocolates, and egg-free macarons. Order the small size to share with your love, or opt for the larger size if you’re throwing a Galentine’s celebration.
