Mini Desserts in Jars are ideal for those occasions when you only need a small taste! Pop a lid on the jar and they make perfect desserts for picnics and camp-outs, too.
Mini desserts are fun to eat. Who can resist a cute little dessert in a Mason jar or tiny dessert glass? These small desserts are great for baby showers, weddings, or other special occasions. Being portable means that you can take them to potlucks, picnics or even on a camping trip without worrying about spilling.
