Mailing and Packaging Cookies
The best package in the world.
First the donts:
Dont send cookies that need refrigeration, have custard fillings or toppings, theyll likely go bad. Dont send delicate cookies. They are likely to be crumbs before they arrive.
Now the dos:
Hard and crunchy cookies are best. They are less likely to break or dry out since they are typically a dryer cookie to begin with. Cookies that seem to age well and hence are great for mailing are Lebkuchen and
Macaroons.
If you're mailing locally or an area that can be reached in under a week, cookies that are a little chewy will work as well like
Chocolate
Chip Cookies.
Brownies and unfrosted bars may be mail as well. Wrap each separately in plastic wrap to help keep them moist.
Packing:
-
Pack only cooled
cookies
-
Don't pack crisp and soft cookies together. Actually it is best to pack differently flavor in different container to avoid flavor mixing.
-
Don't overstuff your container they should just be snug.
-
Pack cookies in a sturdy tin or airtight container.
-
Line the bottom with bubble wrap then parchment paper.
-
Fill in any gaps with tissue paper and place some bubble wrap on top.
-
Place a layer of parchment between each layer of cookies.
-
Place tin in a study cardboard box and fill in the gaps with packing peanuts.
-
Tightly seal with packing tape.
-
Mark the package clearly with the word "perishable".
