We know that time of the year is near, and whether you're staying in or going out, dessert is just the start of your night. You can't go wrong with these options.

Sure your Aquarius dream date could make their own dessert, but where's the fun in that? Cater to his or her free spirit and eccentric personality with an ice cream sundae bar. Their favorite candies and ice cream toppings will go a long way for you, since your Aquarius can be creative and craft the dessert their way (with a little help from you, of course)!

Pisces (February 20 – March 19 )

Make today all about them. The selfless nature of your Pisces means they deserve a little something extra … and I don't just mean sprinkles! Offer an escape with a warm brownie and caramel — a scoop of their favorite ice cream and a cherry on top may help seal the deal for you too!

Aries (March 21 – April 20 )

Enthusiasm is your Aries' middle name, so their dessert should be exciting and fun. They've brought so much joy to your life, making red velvet cake a perfect choice. Chocolate and white chocolate chips will take this dessert up a notch, and work well even if you would prefer your red velvet in cookie form. Your Aries will be nibbling on more than this dessert when you're done.

Taurus (April 12 – May 21 )

While stubborn, Tauruses can also be very easy going. But don't use that as an excuse to just stop at a pound cake. Taureses want to be sweet, but need help making it worth their while. Strawberry short cake is always a win, and with some extra whip cream your Taurus' heart will keep coming back for more.

Gemini (May 22 – June 21 )

High energy and sometimes unpredictable, your Gemini will need your help setting the proper tone this Valentine's Day. Chocolate covered strawberries are sure to be a huge hit for you. Fondue is your friend. Prepare some of their favorite fruit, and the party is sure to keep going even when the fruit runs out.

Cancer (June 22 – July 22 )

Get creative! When expressing your passion for your Cancer bae, what better way to express that than cheesecake? A plethora of toppings will give you all you need to explore, and to make sure that your night is as adventurous and creative as your Cancer is hoping it will be.

Leo (July 22 – August 21 )

Leader and ruler of the jungle, your Leo wants to know you put your best foot forward. If you can handle a tiramisu, make it. If not, go full in with soft and warm chocolate brownies, and don't forget the ice cream and cherry on top! But remember, Leos like to lead, so let them gauge how much is too much when it comes to the caramel and chocolate.

Virgo (August 22 – September 23 )

Reliable and practical, don't let their modesty make your plans too simple. Live a little on the edge with your dessert and your Virgo will be more than impressed with your choice. With simple ingredients but lots of love, they'll enjoy a tiramisu. Whether it is fruit flavored or chocolate infused, get crafty and then enjoy the benefits of your hard work.

Satisfy your Sagittarius' curious appetite while exploring how much they want to indulge. Filling and flavorful, dulce de leche mousse is sure to be your best bet with its soft and palatable texture. And it gives you the option of adding a nice cookie/cinnamon stick to take it over the edge.

Relinquish control and let loose for your ambitious Capricorn. Salted caramel cake is a wonderful treat, especially if you save some of the caramel for later. You may feel like you just served them well for their birthday, but don’t be afraid to offer a little more on Valentine’s Day!
