So I’m either on top of the current food trends or I’m way behind the curve. Either way, I’m all about this fun concept of baking in jars.
Pies, cakes, rolls – there are so many fun options when it comes to jar baking, and it’s pretty easy too. They’re perfect for dinner parties, showers, or even gifts. Here’s a round-up of some tasty and pretty treats in a jar. Enjoy!

Oh I am IN LOVE with all this jar lovin’ and baking. THANK YOU for sharing! Time to stock up on some jars.
Looking forward to reading more about “baking in jars”. I am always looking for new ways to recycle.
I am not sure what the point is for baking in jars. Is it as a way to use jars that otherwise would go in recycling? I can and freeze produce in jars, but they are specifically made for that purpose. Even with those, I occasionally have one break. I wonder about the heat resistance of jars not specifically made for that. What is your experience with this?
In response to Cyndy: My mother used to save every kind of jam jar and mayo jar and peanut butter jar. The standard canning lids fit on these and she used these for canning her own foods. We never had anything break due to heating. I’m sure the 350 degree oven isn’t any different than the boiling products that went into the jars. I’m sure they should be fine as being heat-resistant.
Oh just how fun are these! I love the idea because I love to give my baked treats away to my friends and neighbors and this is an easy way to do it!
ooooooooo this is such a neat way to bake…going to have to try some for sure. thanks for sharing.
even if i dont bake a thing i DO LOVE reading recipes like a magazine.
I have been a buyer for major corporations and have received many of these as a Christmas present. They are great and have never had a bad one!!
These are the cutest thing EVER!

Hi Janie –
I’m working on getting some more information together on exactly how to bake in jars. Once I put it together I’ll be sure to share it with you!
I can’t wait to try the Cupcake and Pie in a Jar. They will make wonderful gifts for long distance relatives.
Is it possible to store these after baking? freezer? shelf life? etc?
Thanks!
I bake pumpcan cakes in a jar, seal them & they last FOREVER, stored upside down – no icing. I had 1 batch go sour on me & don’t know why but everyone likes the taste & the novelty!
