Use Metal Coffee Cans to Bake a Cake
It seems like more people are buying the 1-lb. bags of coffee, but there’s still plenty of metal coffee containers out there. These are very handy for putting nuts or bolts in, but have you thought about baking in them? In a letter to Dear Heloise, a lady wrote that her church group bakes cakes in small metal coffee containers to be shipped off as care packages for troops in Iraq. The cakes travel well and they stay fresh longer; this is a good idea.
