I love homemade gifts. They're inexpensive, useful and personal. This year, as we've had so many requests for my husband's Candied Bacon recipe, we decided to dress it up a bit, package it pretty and give it away as a special little extra something for people to enjoy throughout the year.
For some of the harder-to-pick-for males on our lists, we're including this jar with some high quality local bacon (what guy doesn't like bacon?).
Below is the easy-peasy Sugar & Almond Spice recipe and a free printable with the Candied Bacon recipe for tagging your creations. Just print that baby out on cardstock and tie with a pretty ribbon!
