In keeping with the new baby theme (congratulations!), these could also be part of a gift, along with or in lieu of, a meal for the family…especially nice if you are blessing a neighbor or someone that you don’t know well.

Great idea!!! I love this! I have a dozen jars that I wasn’t able to use for canning (garden didn’t do anything for me this year!) that I need to use. Perfect!

Have you ever tried freezing the actual bread dough? I do that with pizza dough and occasionally cinnamon roll dough – they’re both yeast-based recipes, and require a little time post-thawing to rise again, but they still taste just fine. I’ll make 3 pizza doughs at once, and have dough on hand for our weekly pizza night for almost a month. I also do this w/cookie dough as one commenter mentioned.

I found this website this evening around 7 my time. I did a google search for chocolate syrup recipe. Anyway, its now 9 here and I am still intrigued. I did however take time out to make the syrup, and it turned out delicious.

I have thought about doing this many times, but never actually did. LOL I love the jar idea! I think you have inspired me.

I have just discovered Small Notebook and this was one of the first things i came across… what a fantastic idea! Pre-mixing the ingredients will save so much time, and a cupboard full of beautiful mason jars will look so great Can’t wait to get started on this! I think a trip to the bulk food store is in order…

This is an AMAZING idea! This is a huge time saver. I believe by doing this, I will bake my own much more often!!!

absolutely love it! when i went camping this last week, i did a similar thing with ziploc bags and my own healthier pancake mix. but using mason jars is a great way to speed things up at home!

I’ve started making my own mixes…I found a great book by Backwoods Home ~ Self-reliance, Recession-proof your pantry.

i have been doing this for a while. For recipies like cookies where they like you to cream the sugars I just put those in a seperate jar.
