Adding to the Romance - Breakfast in Bed
Introduction
Helping couples celebrate an anniversary or a romantic getaway can be one of the most satisfying aspects of innkeeping. Not only do you create memories that will never be forgotten, you can also reap a tidy profit at the same time by creating a romantic package offering extra goodies like gourmet breakfast in bed and selections from the list below. By allowing the partner booking the getaway the option to pamper their partner and themselves, you can realize an incremental profit by marking up over cost each additional product or service in the package.
The guiding principles of a romantic breakfast are: cozy, carefree, and luxurious. Lower lights, place bouquets around the room, scatter petals between the sheets and put on some slow jazz. Bed linens should be absolutely heavenly—soft sheets and fluffy pillows. Breakfast should be served on your most beautiful plates. It's also a good idea to have a thermal carafe and glass pitcher handy so guests don't have to leave their rooms for coffee and other beverage refills.
Create the Perfect Breakfast Tray
The trays are large. I set each one as if I was setting a table. I include a glass, a little jug of cream, a tiny breadbasket, and an individual saltcellar and pepper mill. If I possibly can, I put the first course and the dessert into little individual pots or ramekins. I have a collection of various china lids in assorted sizes with which I cover the first course (eggs cocotte, a mini-soufflé, an individual egg casserole) and the breakfast "dessert" (crème caramel, fruit compote). The dishes I own tend to dictate the food I serve.
I like using lids on food not only because they keep it warm, but because the hidden always seems more tempting to me, just as the wrapped present is for a child. I get a definite thrill lifting the lid off a pot on a friend's stove, expecting some delicious bubbling nectar underneath.
For a breakfast or coffee tray, I like to use a small tray and make a nest of material in it, using some remnant or even just an old fashioned linen tea towel. Into the nest I arrange the china and a piece of hot coffee cake or a croissant, closely packed—nestling.
Sounds like a yummy repast.
Pampering Add Ons for Bed and Breakfast:
1. Massage oil and massage book.
2. Mimosas, Bloody Marys, or champagne (if your permit allows).
3. Romantic board games.
4. Chocolate. With so many choices in chocolate, from white to milk to dark to filled, all you need to know is your guest's preference.
5. Romantic roses are perfect for any occasion.
6. Heart-shaped pancakes using heart-shaped cookie cutters.
7. Providing a book of romantic poems.
8. Create a coupon book full of special treats. Some suggestions are back massages, foot rubs, and a special dinner.
9. A breakfast parfait, chocolate dipped strawberries, or edible flowers.
10. Bubble bath, extravagant lotion and a loofah or back brush.
Conclusion
Finally, a marketing tip: Take a picture of the happy couple beside your inn's sign and send it to them right after they check out. You can be sure that they will forward it to all their friends with glowing reports about the magnificent and romantic inn they just enjoyed.

Orange Cheesecake – Creamy Crockpot Recipe
Ah, the good old Cheesecake! Who has enough time to make a great one from scratch? This Crock Pot Creamy Orange Cheesecake is actually very easy to make.
FOR CRUST:
3/4 cup cookie crumbs or graham cracker crumbs
2 tablespoons sugar
3 tablespoons melted butter
FOR FILLING:
16 ounces light cream cheese
2/3 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 egg yolk
1/4 cup frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed
1 teaspoon orange or lemon zest, or dried grated rind
1 tablespoon flour
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1.In medium bowl, combine crumbs with sugar. Mix in melted butter until well moistened. Pat into bottom of a 7-inch springform pan and set aside.
2. In another medium bowl, beat together the cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add eggs and yolk and beat with a hand-held electric mixer for about 3 minutes on medium.
3. Add orange juice, zest, flour, and vanilla and beat for another 2 minutes.
4. Pour batter over crumb crust in prepared pan. Place a rack or a piece of crumpled aluminum foil in bottom of 5 quart crockpot. Carefully place the springform pan on top of all of this, so it doesn't rest on the bottom of the pot , making sure it's level.
5. Cover crockpot and cook on high for 2 1/2 to 3 hours. Turn off crockpot, don't remove lid, and leave for 1 to 2 hours, until cool enough to remove. Carefully remove cheesecake from crockpot.
6. Cool completely. Remove sides of the pan. Chill in the refrigerator for 2 hours before cutting and serving. Store leftovers in the refrigerator.
In your crockpot the top of cheesecake will not crack, as it usually does when the cheesecake is baked in the oven.
Your springform pan should fit easily in your slow cooker, with at least 1/2" space all the way around between the pan and the sides of the crockpot.
As you probably already know, cheesecake is a famous dessert that consists of a topping made of soft, fresh cheese on a base made from pastry, biscuit or sponge. The topping is often sweetened with sugar and topped with fruit, fruit flavored drizzle, nuts or chocolate. It was already a popular dessert in ancient Greece. North American cheesecakes are typically baked before serving. In the United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand and Ireland, cheesecake is typically made with a base of crushed, buttered coookies and often topped with a fruit compote.
