Sweet and savory pecans make a fun holiday gift when festively packaged and labeled with the recipe. Type in the recipe (or download it from www.sunset.com/label), then print it in a color that complements your ribbon. If you don't have a color printer, save the file to a disk and take it to a copy shop. Purchase small tins (for sources, see page 159), or use waxed paper to make neat packages.
