Ice cream as a Love Language
The five love languages describe the five ways people like to receive and express love in a relationship: Physical Touch, Acts of Service, Words of Affirmation, Quality Time, and Receiving Gifts. If you haven’t discussed love languages with your special someone, share a milkshake and get talking! Already know your partner’s love language? Show them you care in the sweetest way possible—with ice cream! Here are some fun and thoughtful ice cream ideas for each love language to help you celebrate love and connection.
Words of Affirmation: “You look more delicious than an ice cream sundae!”
Acts of Service: “I scooped your ice cream for you.”
Receiving Gifts: “I picked up your favorite flavor on my way home.”
Quality Time: “Let’s go out for ice cream.”
Physical Touch: “Let me hold you like a pint.”
Skip the chocolates, go for the novelty bar bouquet!
Flowers and chocolates are Valentine’s Day staples, but your special someone deserves the best! Take your Valentine’s gift to the next level the Perry’s way by combining ice cream and flowers into one perfect bouquet! Add a few of their favorite novelty bar flavors in with some sweet-smelling flowers. If you’re lucky, they may even share some you!
Watch a movie and split a pint!
They say the best things in life are meant to be shared—like a pint of Rocky Mountain Raspberry! Slip into your comfiest sweatpants, light a fire, turn on a classic rom-com, and get spoonin’ (the ice cream, of course!) This laid-back, delicious alternative is sure to make your Valentine’s Day sweet and memorable.
