Best way to ship some souvenirs home to USA?

For most destinations, I'm able to figure out shipping options quickly with just google, but I'm struggling to find solid info for Singapore -> US.

I'd like to ship a few jars/containers of Kaya from here in Singapore to myself back in the US. I believe Kaya to be considered a liquid for carryon purposes, and I'll not be checking a bag this trip.

What's my best shipping path? Do grocery stores sell it in less heavy/breakable containers than glass jars? Any hints on where to buy appropriate packing materials?

Also, if I'm missing an easy alternative to shipping, please say. Is Kaya equivalent to a US product of a different name? (I'm not aware that it is) Are there vendors that will ship for me? Does anyone sell it in marked 100ml containers? All I have seen for sale are large jars.
