The day of love is approaching, and if you want to prepare a special dinner, perhaps by candlelight with an appetizer, then you can’t miss the love breadsticks, very easy to make with just one ingredient to present to your love for Valentine’s evening. After my 2026 breadsticks I couldn’t help but prepare these simple love breadsticks too, naturally customizable as you want, I added some hearts to make it all a little more special. But let’s see together how to prepare them in the following recipe.
- Cuisine: Italian
- Seasonality: Valentine's Day, Mother's Day
Ingredients
- 1 roll pizza dough (ready-made)
Steps
The procedure for the love breadsticks is really very simple, preheat the oven to 350°F in fan-assisted mode. Place a sheet of parchment paper on a baking tray, then spread out the ready-made pizza dough and cut strips 0.4 inches thick using a pizza cutter. Moisten two strips with a bit of water and start creating the love breadstick by placing it directly on parchment paper. The shape of the writing can be different—I made the classic cursive, but you can get creative.
I recommend creating at least 4-5 love breadsticks and making hearts with the rest.
Then bake for about 15 minutes, and your love breadsticks are ready to be enjoyed. Once baked, gently pick them up from both ends because they are quite delicate; however, I recommend letting them cool well before serving.
ATTENTION with this method you can create any writing or shape, maybe brushing them with oil and spices. Love breadsticks can become anything you want.

If you want to make your love breadsticks more interesting, you can brush them with chili oil, but don’t overdo it, of course.
