Gift Idea For an elegant presentation, pour the sauce into a 12-ounce six-sided or smooth-sided jar. Affix a ribbon to the middle of the jar with craft glue or double-sided tape, and attach the gift tag or make a label (be sure to include directions for storage and use). For an extra-special gift, include assorted fruit or and unfrosted cake, such as angel food or pound cake, with the sauce.
