Let’s talk about cake! That’s one of the first things that comes to mind when you think of birthdays!
If your loved one is celebrating a birthday away from home, there are a couple different ways you can finish off your birthday care package with some cake!
1.Mug Treats
These are perfect to send! The have a long shelf life, easy to pack, comes in a lot of different flavors AND you can make them in the microwave!
My husband loved when I sent them during his last deployment. Not only were they great for his birthday but they were also great when he needed something sweet during the day.
2. Cake in a Jar
There’s nothing like a homemade cake on your birthday! Now no matter where your loved one may be they can celebrate with a yummy cake made by YOU!
I like to use a recipe I found on Military.com to make my Cake in a Jar. Be sure check Military.com for the recipe, tips, tricks and safety info for these cakes in a jar.
