5. The Red Velvet Duo
Unapologetically sweet and as rich as we hope to be one day. The iconic Red Velvet Cheesecake Cake from Milk Bar is back and better than ever—this time with treat-sized truffles to top it off 🌹🌹
Nothing says Valentine’s Day like the Red Velvet Cheesecake Cake. A fan obsession from past years, Milk Bar re-released this limited-edition treat to satiate the taste buds and souls of hopeless romantics and desert-aholics alike. Featuring layers of rich double chocolate cake, sweet red velvet frosting and creamy vanilla cheesecake filling—and topped with cake crumbs—this dessert truly feels like Valentine’s Day in every bite.
And for those who like to eat with their hands, the Red Velvet Cheesecake Cake Truffles are the perfect companion for a romantic night in. Wink wink.
4. The Tastiest Double Date
Enjoy 2x the flavor with this mix-and-match combo that lets you be as anti-commitment as you want, as long as you come with a big appetite 😋🍪
Milk Bar gets that commitment can be hard. One moment you want a Chocolate B-Day Truffle…and the next you want to chow down on a Cornflake Chocolate Chip Marshmallow Cookie while binge-ing 90’s rom-coms in a sweatsuit. The point is, Milk Bar understands love comes in all shapes and flavors, which is why they created this divine assortment to let you have all the desserts.
With six cookie flavors and 18 assorted truffles, The Tastiest Double Date combo is a guaranteed crowd-pleaser for brunch with the girls, or perfect for sharing with a partner for a week of treats.
3. V’Day Your Way
Valentine’s Day isn’t about following convention, it’s about celebrating how you want. And if that means living every day like your birthday, Milk Bar’s got you covered 🎂❤️
Pro tip: there’s no such thing as a guilty pleasure when you don’t feel guilty about your pleasures. And what better time to indulge in some self-love (in the form of Milk Bar’s famous Birthday Cake) than Valentine’s Day? With wedding cake-level vanilla buttercream and flavor blasted confetti cake, the Birthday Cake is the epitome of “treat yo self.”
Plus for those wanting to have their main dessert squeeze while flirting with some sugary side pieces, Milk Bar bundled their Birthday Cake with a dozen Red Velvet Cheesecake Cake Truffles. You only live once—eat em both! Love doesn’t need to be confined when it comes to dessert.
2. The Assorted Truffle Box
They say you can never have too much of a good thing—and that’s certainly true with this mixed truffle assortment, which lets you celebrate Valentine’s Day all week long 📆🔁
Milk Bar fans go gaga over these truffles because they deliver all the flavor of a Milk Bar cake in just a few bites. No plate and fork required. With three flavors (Birthday Cake, Chocolate Birthday Cake, and the limited edition Red Velvet Cheesecake Cake) this truffle tin is ideal for those who like to savor their favorite moments.
The Assorted Truffle Box makes it so you can enjoy Valentine’s Day one bite at a time (and the keepsake tin is a perfect place to store love letters).
1. Match Made in (Dessert) Heaven
Sometimes being romantic means going big and pulling out all the stops. Give in to your heart’s biggest desires with this Mini Black and White Cake and truffle combo 🤍🖤
If you’re someone who likes to punctuate a special night with an epic unveiling, this dessert is for you. Sandwiching layers of chocolate between vanilla cake and cookies-and-cream frosting—all topped with shortbread crumbs—this Black and White Cake pays homage to New York’s classic bodega cookie, with all the glamor and flavor that is Milk Bar. And it is amazing.
Milk Bar also included a dozen assorted truffles to quell any lingering sugar cravings that might endure after you wolf down this cake (we promise…it’ll go fast). With limited supplies, we highly recommend ordering this one ASAP.
