Learn How to Make Gift Mixes Themed Party!
You know how making gift mixes and presenting them in jars is a popular thing to do? Well, I converted that!
I have a few gift mixes recipes that I converted to fit into a Modular Mate Oval 1 and some to fit into the Cwave Soup Mug or RNS soup mug.
I have now done this party theme twice and it was a big hit that I have more coming up soon!
I can post the recipes & intructions here in this thread if others are interested.

I got a few more recipes too. Most of them can be packed & presented into Oval 1, Oval 2 and some in a Oval 3 Modular Mate Container and some can be packed into the Crystalwave or RNS soup mug too. I am still playing around with them to see what other containers we can pack them into and I am still playing around with some recipes too.

Shelly can you send me the other recipes that you have that aren't posted and also how you did the party. Sounds like it would be a fun party. I just did a cookie in a container using a Round 4.
