Default Food gifts... in jars

You know those nifty jars of cookie/cake/brownie mixes that you can
make, layered like sand art? Does anyone have any unusual or favorite
recipes? I was considering making up a bunch of those jars as xmas
gifts this year for coworkers, and i'd like something interesting.

I used to know a lady who did lavender pound cake mix in jars. Just a
regular, plain pound cake in layers, like you mentioned but with dried
lavender blossoms mingled in. Fabulous. You can do it with rose petals as
well.

There is a little booklet of them at our local grocers' checkout lines.
Let me peruse one and I'll see what pops out.
