Baking in the jar is not for me, that's a whole different thing. For my purposes, I don't need them to last indefinately, just a cute and delicious way to send yummy cupcakes in the mail. I steralize the jars and lids first in a hot water bath like you are supposed to, then when they are dry I layer away, they come out so cute. I do send them to deployed locations that aren't too hot and so long as they get there in 5-7 days they are still fresh and delicious. So it's just a cupcake/layered little cake in a jar for presentation and easy shipping for me. I am going to look at those bakeable fillings though, sounds interesting 
rikkijo314: I have a foodsaver, does the mason jar attachment work on regular mason jars or do you need special lids?
blue123: I bake Jumbo cupcakes in Jumbo liners in a Jumbo pan (enough Jumbo for you, lol) then I take them out of the papers, slice them and layer them in the jars with the fillings/buttercream, the Jumbo CC fill the jars perfectly!
anxietyattack: yes they freeze well, don't know a max time to tell you, because they have never lasted that long in my house, but the longest has been about 3-4 weeks and so long as we let them defrost to room temp before eating they were still really good
