Instructions to send cookies by mail
Shipping cookies is easy. Choose a recipe from this list, bake them, and let the cookies cool down completely. Pack them into airtight containers, cleaned recycled jars, or Ziploc bags.
Pack them tight so they don’t move around in the package a lot. Put some bubble wrap or crumpled paper into the package as filling and protective cushion.
Keep different kinds of cookies separate from each other so each cookie keeps its taste.
You’ll find more helpful tips for packing up cookies safely here:
- The Barefoot Baker has a thorough post on shipping even delicate cookies by mail with pro tips and a video.
- You can even ship cookies overseas in a care package. Military Wives Saving shares how they keep fresh and tasty!
Print cute free gift tags to accompany the cookies, for example, these apple gift tags. Write on the gift tag what kind of cookie you send and maybe information for allergic persons.
