- DIVIDE flour between 2 medium bowls. Stir baking soda and salt into the first bowl. Stir ground ginger, cinnamon and cloves into the second bowl.
- SPOON flour mixture from first bowl carefully into jar to create the first layer. Spoon in brown sugar. Carefully spoon

Seal the jar and tie with ribbon. - ATTACH a recipe with the following baking directions: Pour contents of jar into a large bowl.
