Sweeten your valentine's morning by topping his coffee with love. Spoon a bit of foamed milk on top, and use a squeeze bottle to draw a heart with room-temperature chocolate syrup -- store-bought or homemade -- just before serving. Make sure foam is dense and syrup is thin. Serve immediately; the image will last only a minute or two. This trick works on cappuccino and latte, or hot chocolate topped with whipped cream.
If you have an espresso machine this can be done if you froth the milk first and then extract the espresso. The espresso will leave a beautiful design on your froth if you're careful enough.

So cute, I'm going to do this one.
Sounds like an especially 'sweet' idea for my sweet on Valentines Day morning!
