WARNING: Use only CANNING JARS for this recipe. Others may not be tempered to withstand the heat. Do NOT use coffee or vegetable cans as most contain lead and are painted or sealed with materials that may give off toxic gases when heated.
This recipe doesn't say you can seal them up and store them in your pantry but my Kerr Canning book recipe says you can; here's how:
Remove jars from the oven one at a time, wipe rim of jar clean; put on lid and ring and screw on tightly. Jars will seal as the cake cools.
Store like canned goods.
If you'll be giving these as gifts, take a piece of decorative cloth (about 1-inch larger in circumference than the lid or as large as you'd like) and put it on top of the lid, then screw on the ring. Make sure you screw the lid on very tightly. I like to use pinking shears to cut the cloth out with.
