Five Homemade Gift Ideas
Here are some ideas for homemade holiday gifts that you still have time to make before Christmas.
Hot Cocoa Mix – Nothing beats a great mug of hot cocoa!
Peppermint Marshmallows – These marshmallows go perfectly with a mug of hot cocoa
Peanut Butter Caramel Corn – Caramel corn makes a great gift. This stuff has just a hint of peanut butter flavor
Spiced Meat Rub – You can rub this on any kind of meat for delicious results
Salted Caramel Sauce – Salted caramel makes everything taste better. You can make it at home and any who gets a jar will thank you for years to come

I am Jen the Beantown Baker. Engineer by day and baking maven by night. Hubby serves as my #1 fan and official taste tester. We got hitched back in 2006. Barefoot. In the sand. With the waves crashing behind us. It was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. 
For sure, one of the coolest cakes I have ever seen! I am really horrible at frosting cakes, too and I’m always looking for more creative ways to decorate instead. Fabulous!

Decorating the outside of cakes is tough. I am definitely looking forward to making this again for another occasion. I think it would be cute for valentine’s day with pink and red hearts or X’s and O’s.
