Project #2 Sticky Roll in a Jar

Here's a project inspired by notmartha. Once you start baking things in jars, you can't stop. You just wait.

Prior to my baking adventure, it seemed that cobblers, pies, and cakes were among the most tried-and-true of the jarred edibles world. Now you can add the Sticky Roll to your arsenal.


The Original Sticky Roll in a Jar by Gimme Some Shuga!

Add some fancy ribbon and a custom label, and you've got yourself a perfect gift! Try several recipes and make up  a sampler of sweets! (And yes, the "sticky" is on the bottom, waiting to be flipped!)

Some tips:
-Canning jars are necessary for oven use. Otherwise, your glass is going to explode!
-Canning lids screwed into place immediately after baking will seal your sweets for maximum freshness.
-Frosting/icing is best added right before consumption.
-Excellent for shipping in the mail!
-Use a knife and go around the inside of the jar to free cakes or quickbreads for slicing.

FYI- If you're into making some dough (pun intended) on your edibles, research your local laws beforehand. In PA, if you want to sell what you bake at home, you must have your kitchen licensed. I looked into this. And you can't have your kitchen licensed unless you get rid of these guys:

Not an option! Our mini-dachsies enjoying some sun.
