The Sandwich Bag


So tonight my friend was on face book and she told me she was trying to make basketball cup cakes but her son ran off with the attachments to the frosting bag so she couldn't get the stripes right. Well I wish I would of known a little sooner because I could of told her just to put the black frosting into a little sandwich baggie and seal it up and cut a tiny part of the corner off and use for frosting and that got me thinking about all the random uses besides putting a sandwich in the bag here are a few ideas!

1. My favorite trick which my Nana's house keeper who is an amazing cook taught me when making rice krispie treats to put a sandwich bag on my hand with a little butter on the outside of the bag so I can flatten the top of my rice krispie treats in the pan it works like a charm and you get perfect rice krispie treats with out getting it on your fingers

2. The frosting trick put your frosting in the bag and cut the very tip off the corner of the bottom of the bag to decorate.

3.Turn the bag into a funnel for anything fill the bags with salt and pepper before you fill your shakers. Cut a small corner and pour them into your shakers for a clean, neat way to fill them. This way, it will go where its supposed to and not onto your clean counters.

4. When traveling, I always have one bag handy to put over my camera in case of rain. With the open side facing down, you can just lift one side to capture your memory without fear of your camera getting wet.
