This recipe uses a 1/2 pint wide mouth canning jar. You can add a cookie cutter if desired as part of the decorating. This is a great gift in a jar for a Christmas/ Yule gift for making family heirlooms ornaments. A wonderful baby shower gift or even a babies first christmas gift to make a hand or foot mold Also a great teacher's give away gift for the summer months ahead to keep those kids of trouble and remind them of you in the years to come. You can even add glitter in a small baggy for use in decorating a snowflake to a icicle ornament. Note: spices are cheapest at big lots or the dollar store and even walmart.
