Recipe for 24 Simmering Sachet Christmas Gifts

5 oranges sliced into 1/4 inch circles

2 bags fresh cranberries

72 cinnamon sticks

1 jar whole cloves

1 jar whole allspice berries

clear cellophane treat bags

clear 9 oz. SOLO cups

To dry your fruit, place cooling racks on several baking sheets and spread the fruit into single layers. Prop your oven door open slightly and bake at 170 F for several hours until dry. Check it occasionally - fruit should not be sticky.

 

When fruit is dried, place 2 orange slices, a handful of cranberries, 3 cinnamon sticks, 4 cloves and 6 allspice berries in a clear treat bag. Tie with coordinating ribon, place into 9 oz. SOLO cup and include a note with directions to pour into a pot of water and let simmer for a wonderful Holiday Aroma.

 

For an elegant Christmas gift presentation, put some double stick tape or a glue dot on the SOLO cup and slide into Christmas Dessert Skirtz cupcake wrappers.
