American supermarket chain Publix commissioned this touching advertisement for Valentines Day in 2005. A young boy (Zach Mills) gets his mother (Reamy Hall) to help him make a heart-shaped cake for someone special. Together they mix the ingredients, bake the cake and ice it. The message? It’s the relationships that happen around our food that matter.
