Because I am a planner, today I wanted to share some fun edible Christmas gifts that you can plan for now, and give as gifts next month. These gifts are not only fun to receive, they are also inexpensive to make. Perfect for gifts for friends, coworkers, teachers and neighbors.
Hello Friends!
I love this time of year, primarily because I get to spend time with friends and family, but also because I can get creative – like with these edible Christmas gifts in mason jars. Edible gifts are fun because it allows me to be a bit more frugal (you can make several from one set of ingredients), but it also allows people to actually use and enjoy the gift they’re given more than once. (Well, and there are no sizes to worry about! That’s a bonus.)
From jellies and jams to hot cocoa, cookie and brownie mix these gift ideas make great teacher and neighbor gifts for just about anyone. Add a festive ribbon and gift tag and you’re set. Make sure you take one along to any holiday party you might be invited to – the host or hostess will love it.

Gifts in mason jars are an inexpensive way to show people you’re thinking of them throughout the holiday season and beyond. My favorite part is how customizable they are! Pinterest has hundreds of ideas for creating gifts like these for just about anyone on your list – even pets. What furry friend wouldn’t love a jar of homemade treats? What husband wouldn’t love a gift of his favorite candies or a “minibar in a jar”? You’re not limited to food so thin outside the box…or the jar as it were!

Super intriguing. I love the melting snowman in a jar. I think Scarlet would love to make that for loved ones. And for herself!
