Earlier this year, I found myself in a predicament.

That’s when I remembered seeing reusable plastic cupcake containers at the Dollar Tree a few months earlier.

At just $1.25 each, these unassuming containers have become a saving grace for my holiday baking.

(Though I would neveractuallyask this.)

It’s freedom in container form!

Even if you wanted to send a full dozen, two containers will only cost $2.50.

The snap-on lids are surprisingly secureI’ve driven over speed bumps with them and arrived with every swirl ofbuttercreamintact.

They are made of plastic, so imperfections can happen.

And to state the obvious, they’re also ideal for muffins.

I also can’t say enough good things about the cake trays.

They’re available year-round, but I recommend stocking up now that the holidays are around the corner.

I usually buy four or five packs during the holidays.

The holidays are stressful enoughyour baking containers shouldn’t add to that stress.

These Dollar Tree trays are a little piece of mind waiting to make your life a bit easier.

And isn’t that what we’re all looking for this time of year?
