Personal cake in a jar

DSC01135
Ever wish you could have some great homemade chocolate cake with creamy filling and icing – but know that having a whole cake in your house would be a horribly horribly bad thing? Ever wish someone could just give you a small serving, just right to get to taste all the delicious creaminess without tempting you with a whole cake? My answer to this ‘dilemma’ is a Personal Cake in a Jar- be it a big, mini or middle size jar! 

Sometimes there are just people in your life that you want to do something ‘sweet’ for since they have done something for you!  When that happens to me- I usually turn to sweets to treat them with!  Such was the case this week…..

DSC01138 Here are some of the little Thank You gifts that I made for some very special people that have filled my last year with happiness.  Thanks to them for all the great work they did on our team.   I’m fairly certain that they all think the jars were too much on the ‘mini’ side- So- next time I will put the cakes in middle size jars.  

Personal pies are also a sweet way to say thank you. Pretty much anything in a little jar makes me happy to give away.

Sweets to you!  Suzanne
