♥ If you’re not bananas about chocolate, then ditch the chocolate and go for some bananas instead. Confused? Nah. Visit Love Swah for this fruity guilty pleasure in a mug.

♥ What could be more seductive this Valentine’s Day than sharing a cosy cherry cheesecake in a mug for two? One spoon, please!
