sure when she'll get it so it needs to be fresh for at least 2 weeks.

She tends to like sugar cookies (like Penny's) or citrus-flavored cookies. I've made those before, but they were eaten within the week so I didn't worry about staleness.

(Sending them unbaked isn't an option right now.)

 
There is "fresh" and "out of the oven". They will never be the latter except when they ARE that!!

We have fresh baked cookies every day here that are TDF--the next day they are good also, if you get my drift.
Send air tight and they won't get soggy which is worse.
Chocolate chip? I think sugar cookies are a little more fragile, but crumbs are good too. LOL

 
huh...you mentioned this before. It looks a lot like my old vacuum sealer. I wonder if that would

work??? The "vacuum" portion never worked all that well, but the heat sealer worked fine.

Thanks Deb! I would have never gone down this route. And I know San likes Penny's Cookies so that's settled too.

 
Speaking of 'fragile'

I pack mine in shredded paper - it seems to work really well (just normal white paper that I put through the shredder. basically in layers. (paper/cookies/paper/cookies/paper)

 
I use my sealer all the time to seal without the vacuum

for crushable food - like cookies. Insert just the edge to melt. Colleen

 
My sis mails pb cookies all the time. Wrap each in a bit of plastic wrap and stack in a Pringles can

 
oh, that's a nice idea. I justify Talenti ice cream just to reuse the container for big fat cookies.

I make labels with huge lettering that wrap around the container. Six tubs fit perfectly in a wooden clementine box.

You probably don't need to know how I know this.

 
Very clever Jane! (And agree Mar, the gelato would be perfect for big cookies! I use the

container for dh for his pistaschios when he travels.
