I often get asked “what’s in the box?” I have a big gray pastry box. I keep all my sugar tools in it. And for events, everything needed for emergency repairs. It can get quite heavy depending on how much sugar I am carrying. I pack like an artist AND a pastry chef.
This is what is usually in my box.
