French toast: 7 words to woo your beau (Oui, even before breakfast)

Whether you’re planning a cozy breakfast date or just want some cute things to say to your partner, slipping in some simple French love words can turn even burnt toast into a romantic moment.

Love doesn’t need long speeches. Sometimes, it just needs warm toast, the right words, and someone to share them with. So go on, serve it hot, keep it soft, and let the butter (and feelings) melt naturally.

From flirty French words to sweet morning whispers, here’s how to start the day with carbs, cuddles, and a whole lot of charm.

1. Mon amour (My love)

Start strong. Say this while handing over the first slice. Bonus points if you smile like you’re in a rom-com.

Here, mon amour, with extra syrup, just how you like it.

2. Bisous (Kisses)

Short, cute, and sounds like a kiss. Whisper it, text it, or scribble it on a napkin next to the toast.

Bisous! You’ve got jam on your cheek, and now I need one.

3. Merci (Thank you)

A little appreciation goes a long way, especially if they just made breakfast or let you have the last piece.

Merci for making this and for being the sweetest part of my morning.

4. Bonjour (Good morning)

Sure, it’s basic, but it hits different when said slowly over coffee.

Bonjour, beautiful. Today feels extra warm already.

5. Cheri / Cherie (Dear)

Depending on who you’re talking to (he/him = cheri, she/her = cherie), this one’s soft and lovely, perfect for lazy cuddles and half-burnt toast.

Pass the butter, cheri and maybe a cuddle?”

6. Amour (Love)

Use it like salt: just the right amount makes everything better.

This toast? Made with amour. Just like everything else I do for you.

7. Oui (Yes)

Sometimes the simplest word is the sweetest, especially when you’re agreeing to one more slice or one more lazy hour in bed.

Oui to toast. Oui to you. Oui to all of it.
