Just like “on a stick”, everything gets infinitely cuter when layered inside a mason jar and tied with a simple ribbon or tag. Favors are no exception! So make these delicious fruity pies in mini mason jars (or regular size!) then sit back and listen to your guests “ooh” and “aah” over how darn cute you are! Mini Mason Jar Pies INGREDIENTS Pie Crust Dough 2 12 oz. cans of cherry, apple or your favorite pie filling (Or mix blueberry and cherry!) 6 4 oz. mason jars, cleaned with lids and labels removed 1 baking sheet DIRECTIONS Preheat your oven to 325 degrees.

Sometimes simple is stunning and special...How perfect are these jars filled with different items? Rope for a nautical wedding, starfish for a beach wedding and river rocks for a country wedding are simple centerpieces or decor! What I love about this is the many ways that it can be done - pinecones for a wedding in the hills, colored leaves for a fall wedding...you get the idea. And since you chose your location because it was a place you loved, why not use some of the surroundings in your decor...making it all the more personal and special.And since I am at a variety of beaches this ... |
Oh my gosh how I love this idea: cupcake in a jar!... |
I am all for edible favors as gifts. Chances are high that your guests will actually eat or make the ingeditents given to them from your event. During our Inspiration Stations we also encourage you to include elements for your personal lives or just doing something you enjoy (forget about it, nothing you pick everyone will like so just carry on), you never know what you will be introducing someone too. Loving the ideas of doing jar favors with quick recipes that can be found on food network. Curried Lentil Soup Ingredient List In a 3/4-liter glass jar, layer: 2 bay leaves; 1 dried chile ... |
Simple, easy, and something that your guests will keep for long after your wedding is but a distant memory - a favor packaged in a beautiful jar! I love the first idea via the Knot - the mother of the groom packaged the dry ingredients of her favorite dessert in beautiful canisters and tied the recipe to the lid. So personal and something your guests can use over and over again! (more…)... |
I pretty sure that it is a proven fact that desserts taste better when served in a jar. A couple of my favorite desserts served in a jar have been red velvet cupcakes and pie. Red Velvet Cupcake in a Mason Jar via With This Ring | Pie in a Mason Jar via Elizabeth Anne Designs But, what about a malt served in a jar? I’m sure it would be scrumdelioumpcious as well! Here’s the recipe for Bing Cherry Malts 2 cups Bing cherries, pitted 2 to 3 tablespoons malted milk powder (usually found by the hot cocoa in stores) 1/4 to 1/3 cup milk 4 cups vanilla ice cream, softened slightly Whipped cream... |
Dessert Idea: Use a variety of vintage and glass cookie jars to display cookies in various flavors. And for those of you who've seen that Martha Stewart mini-jar favor a hundred times, I finally found out where you can purchase it {here}! The jars are $8.50 but they come personalized, exactly like the photo. They would also make a great bridal party favor when filled with a homemade recipe. And Happy New Year's Eve!... |
What’s more fun than yummy cheesecake? Cheesecake in a jar, of course! It’s clear that I have a bit of an obsession with anything in a jar these days (such as bubbles, cookies, cherry pie, ice cream + candles to name a few…) and cheesecake is no exception. The best part of cheesecake has to be the fruit pairings. Strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, raspberries… you name it, I love it. This would make a tasty dessert favor to serve to guests (place jars on ice to keep ‘em chilled!) and even more fun as part of a cheesecake-in-a-jar bar. Have plenty of fresh fruit and granol... |

This fabulous new business founded by the very lovely Christall Lowe is full of fabulous vintage finds and goodies!! I have had my eye on a few things for a while now!

Just the ingredients alone look tempting! I've seen the pie in a jar before but this really... |
