A "Bun in the Oven" Baby Shower Favors

I had so much fun making the favors for Erica's Baby Shower. When I was looking for ideas online, I ran across packages of Muffin Mix for sale, and decided to make something similar...

Instead of muffin mix, and keeping with the theme, I sent each of our guests home with a mix to make Cinnamon Honey Bun Coffee Cake in a Mug! (I found the recipe here.)

Supplies:

• Yellow Cake Mix (I was able to make 9 favors from each box)
• Brown Sugar
• Pecans
• Cinnamon
• Clear Baggies and Ties
• Snack Baggies
• Labels for Topping Packets
• Colored Paper Bags
• Coordinating Ribbon
• Colored Paper & Card Stock for printing tags and labels
• Hole Punch and Scissors

Directions:

Measure the following into a baggie, Seal & Tie off.
1/3 cup yellow cake mix

Add the following into a separate baggie, seal & tie off, label as Topping Mix:
2 tsp brown sugar
1 tsp finely chopped pecans
1/4 tsp cinnamon

Attach Tag:

Empty Cake mix into mug.
Add 2 tsp Oil, 1 T. Water, 1 Egg White, whisk well.
Sprinkle topping packet on & cook on high in microwave for 2 minutes.

I also included optional oven directions, which I tested out since I don't have a microwave and wanted to test the recipe before giving it away! ;)

Next I printed out a poem found online for the cover, along with the image from the invitations, etc, and glued them onto some coordinating paper and then to the bags:

A bun in the oven

Such great joy
Will it be a girl?
Or will it be a boy?

Only time will tell
Whether we'll need pink or blue
We know we'll be ready
Thanks to you!

After placing the Mix and Topping in the bag, I punched a couple holes, added the ribbon, and that was it! They were so easy, even I could make them!!
