8 Heavenly Cakes and Desserts in Jars That Won't Let You Down

If you’ve been searching for a foodie gift that is not only quick and easy to make, but also fun, fresh and, of course, delicious, then search no more! I’ve found just the thing: cake in a jar! You mix your regular cake ingredients in the jar along with some tasty fruit/berries (this is a good opportunity for you to use those fruit that may be nearing the over-ripe stage), pop it in the oven for about an hour, and pull out a perfectly baked cobbler-style cake in a jar! Apart from being a novel gift, this is also a great idea for picnic outings; just don’t forget to bring along the whipped cream.

How to Bake Cakes in a Jar

Quick tip: Use fresh fruit and not frozen fruit as part of your recipe. Commenter Andrea Renaye on YouTube points out that frozen fruit will bleed liquids as they thaw in the oven, which will mess up the consistency of the recipe.
