I don't know why you would want to make your own mixes (unless someone is on a special diet (an situation that seems to be more and more common all of the time)), when there are so many store-bought ones that do so well, IMHO. But, if you do, this looks like a book that you'll want to grab. Especially since it's marked down to free.

The Big Book of Homemade Mixes. By Gia Scott. Rated 4.5 stars, but from only 18 reviews at Amazon; rated 4.27, but from only 11 ratings at GoodReads. Print list price $14.99; digital list price $3.99; Kindle price now $0.00. Amazon Digital Services, publisher. 165 pages. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00PJJO8NW.

Book Description
Nothing can compare to the sense of satisfaction obtained from successfully doing things yourself. From urban apartment micro-kitchens to spacious country kitchens, from a humble camp in the woods to a sleek motorhome, anyone can use these homemade mixes.

For those on special diets, ingredients can be adapted to suit your own needs, by altering or substituting ingredients in recipes. Whether it is salt-free, sugar-free, or gluten-free, by sourcing your own ingredients for the mixes, you can ensure that everything meets your own standards. With the wide variety of recipes, there is plenty to choose from as well.

Speed up meal preparation with easy seasoning blends, make up mixes to make camping and backpacking easier, dress up your coffee with homemade flavored creamers, have a hot beverage made in your own kitchen, or have freshly made salad dressing for dinner. Bake a cake or cookies, make cornbread or biscuits, or even a quick batch of muffins is easily done when you make your own mixes. Best of all, they have all of the flavor of “home-made from scratch” because you make the mix from fresh ingredients right in your own kitchen.
To control the salt and preservatives in answer to your question.
Because some of the mixes are way more expensive than you can make from scratch.
Cornbread, muffins and biscuits are 3 that it is just as easy to make your own.
And I will be grabbing the book.
