She may be running solo this Valentine's Day, but that isn’t stopping Pippa Middleton on offering up her advice on how to throw a fun-filled romantic party.

Taking to the Party Times website she edits, the sister to the Duchess of Cambridge and her colleagues wrote, "Throw a Valentine-themed party for a few friends. Hang some heart decorations around the room for extra kitsch-factor and drink sparkling wine or specially mixed Valentine’s cocktails.”

"How about dipping marshmallows and fruit skewers of banana, grapes and strawberries into a molten chocolate fountain. Everyone can join in – just make sure you have napkins at the ready as things may get messy!" the post continued.

Finally, the party planning team suggests, “Create a few rhyming clues for a treasure hunt around the house to unearth ... little Valentine's gifts that Cupid has lovingly hidden for family members.”
