Tote 'Em Tips
If you don't have special carriers for desserts, try these ideas.
Place the Caramel-Pecan Pie in a box or roasting pan; then tuck a ring of scrunched dpaper towels around the base of the pie plate to prevent sliding and to softly cushion the crust's edge.
Cover the pan of Pumpkin Crisp with aluminum foil; then wrap the entire dish in about 1/2-inch of newspaper to help retain the heat.
Place a tall, narrow drinking glass in the center hole of Granny's Pound Cake; then loosely cover with foil. The glass will help hold the foil above the ccake without disturbing the sprinkling of powdered sugar.
