You’ve worked hard to make your cookies delicious and beautiful, so take the time to ensure they arrive in the mail that way. Part of the joy of making cookies is sharing them with others. If you're going to ship cookies, you need to choose them wisely. Select dry cookies, such as sugar cookies with royal icing, and dense bars, such as Millionaire's Shortbread, since they will stay fresher for longer.
1. Stack bars such as brownies and blondies into small sets, with small pieces of parchment paper in between each.
2. Tightly wrap the bars in plastic wrap.
3. Place wrapped bars and cookies in zipper-lock bags. Keep similar types of cookies together in bags.
4. Stack the bags in a small box with layers of padding in between bags of cookies.
5. Popcorn absorbs shock during shipping and it's easy to source. Now your cookies are ready to mail!
