Anleitung: Backmischungen im Glas
Instructions No. 1302And it's that easy:
1. Select a recipe. It is important for the optimal effect that the ingredients are as colourful as possible. Brown sugar, different types of chocolate, Cacao, dried fruits, nuts, colorful crumbles, candies, etc. are best suited for this
2. Next, you need a suitable preserving jar or an oblong glass jar for the dry ingredients of your recipe (e.g. VBS Glass bottles "Milk" or VBS Storage jars "Mini"). The container should be washed and dried well before. Also note the quantities - the glasses should be filled to the brim, otherwise the individual layers will shift. If the glass is too big, they can be a little more generous with sprinkles, rasps or Chocolate . This way you can keep the proportions of your recipe.
3. Now it is important that the ingredients are layered decoratively . Make sure that the colours of the ingredients directly layered together should be different for a better visual effect. If you have large quantities of ingredients in one colour (e.g. flour) you can divide them up again and distribute them between the coloured layers of other ingredients. If there are small amounts of salt, soda or baking powder in your recipe, you can mix them with the flour.
Light and soft ingredients in the recipe, such as flour or cocoa powder, should be distributed as much as possible at the bottom during layering, while heavy and hard ingredients are more suitable for the upper layers. Each layer should be pressed down as well as possible (for example, using a latte macchiato spoon or the pestle of a mortar).
4. In between, the walls of the glasses should be wiped with a cloth again and again. Even if flour and cocoa powder are poured in with the help of a funnel, the remains of it will stick to the walls of the glasses and become unattractive in further layers.
Now close the glass and decorate it. You can use the trend materials cork and Kraft paper as well as decorative gift tags, decorative ribbons and stamps .
5. With the help of a motif puncher you can punch out decorative labels from the cork blanks, which you can then decorate with matching stamps (e.g. Clear Stamp Set "Bon Appétit"). You can either stick the labels on the glasses or use a Cotton cord ..and attach it. You can achieve a special effect if you first apply a piece Chalkboard fabric on the bottle. Fring the edges of the board fabric - this will give you a nice Black-white look.
6. You can also use the cork labels as tags and attach them to Cotton cord . Then tie the Cotton cord around the glass or around the bottle neck. You can also punch the labels with motif holes of your choice in the shape of a circle or a heart and decorate them with decorative beads and buttons or other materials. You can give your baking mixes a special charm by decorating them additionally with miniature kitchen utensils.
7. The longish glasses can be covered from both sides lengthwise with the check or crochet ribbon . Fix the Ribbon at the top of the cork closure with some glue and stick one of the papier-mâché gift tags on it. To additionally decorate the closure, you can cut a small circle out of the cork and stamp it with a stamp of your choice (e.g. "Made with love" or "For you").
