5.0 out of 5 stars Two Tumbs Up!!, January 15, 2004
By "dr_jat2" (Avon, Colorado) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Gifts in a Jar: Bars & Brownies (Gifts in a Jar, 3) (Spiral-bound)
I bought the entire series and was very impressed. I was tired of baking cookies every Christmas and thought I would try something new. I am SO glad that I gave "mixes" instead of stressing over baking. The responce I got was TWO THUMBS UP!

I made over two dozen mixes in two hours! The most difficult part was cutting the labels and decorations! I bought fabric that didn't fray, elastic jeweler's thread and gold bells. The books come with six receipe cards to attach to the jar!

The only suggesting I have is to buy the supplies at Costco and buy bulk. You'll need 10# more pounds than you think. I found myself running back to the store two times. For four dozen mixes (of cookies and bars) you'll need 40# of flour 20# sugar 15# brown sugar plus hoards of chopped walnuts and various "chips". I found that I needed far more white chocolate chips than anticipated. I experimented by adding different flavored chips (peanut butter, andes mint chips). Buy the WIDE mouth jars - you can buy a "funnel" at Walmart for $1.50. My local grocier ran out of wide mouths so I bought regular jars and had to make a paper funnel (pain in the...). Now-a-days, when you buy the wide mouth jars the lids are attached (no precleaning).

I live at high altitude and made adjustments to the cookie mixes, still they baked flat. For high altitude - stick to the bars and breads.

The only thing I would do differently: Photo copy the receipe cards so you don't have to recreate them on the computer. You can buy heavy stock paper (20#) and go to Kinkos and reprint them.

3.0 out of 5 stars Brownies were a little ...okay ALOT dry, May 13, 2004
By Martin E. Pochis (Raleigh, NC) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Gifts in a Jar: Bars & Brownies (Gifts in a Jar, 3) (Spiral-bound)
I'm only writing this review to let you know the actual outcome of one of the recipes. I fell in love with Gifts In A Jar because they make great unique gifts. I made 4 jars today to give to teachers. Because this was my first time giving the gift to others I thought I'd try the recipe to taste what they would be making. They were VERY dry. Have one with a big glass of milk. The jars themselves came out very cute but I wished I had tasted the recipe before I decided to do them. I am a little disappointed. Just thought you'd like to know too. Try the recipe first and then decide if you want others to think this is your culinary best. I wish I had time to get another gift. Oh well.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great gift item, June 2, 2009
By Heather Walker (Homestead fl) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Gifts in a Jar: Bars & Brownies (Gifts in a Jar, 3) (Spiral-bound)
This is a good gift item, not only to give as a gift but also to make gifts from. The only problem that I have with it is there are only a handful recipes in it and alot of tags to attach to the jar. The improvement I think could be made is to have the lables availible online and put more recipies in the book.
