[Nfb-krafters-korner] mason jar crafts Opinion needed

Wed Aug 10 14:17:37 UTC 2016

Joyce,
Let me tell you.  Layering and getting it to look "pretty" is no easy task!  

With that being said, yes, the person making the jars can indeed do the layering with a note to the receiver on how to either mix or spoon etc.  I'm just saying it will take a lot of luck to get the correct amount of layers each time for a great cup of cocoa!

OK you are being not allowing for participation.  So now hear me out.

Work on maker's end:

Be creative layer your jar and then add some decorations to make it quite Festive.

Receiver's participation:  They get to try to spoon in and get all areas, they get to sit there and stir this all up themselves or they could dump it out or put it in a larger jar and shake it.

Why do we have to do all the work?

I think they would have to mix it up all together or you would not get the right amount in each spoonful.

I have heard of this chocolate coffee jar thingy, but opinion please, what if you layered each one a little amount or a lot so it would look pretty with the browns and white  and on your note tell folks to dig down deep to get all the flavors or just mix it up!???

That way it would look more interesting when presented as a gift.

Here is a recipe that would be good for a mason jar.

Swiss Mocha Mix

2 cups Swiss Miss Cocoa
1 cup instant coffee
2 cups non-dairy creamer
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg

Combine all ingredients and mix thoroughly.  Store mixture in a covered container.  Add 3 to 4 tsps mixture to 1 cup hot water.  This makes 4 cups of mocha mix.

You could change the flavor some by using flavored coffees or creamers.
