I'm shipping cookies on a stick for a friend for her son's birthday party and I did a trial box and 2 cookies broke. I used a shallow box and thought that I had ample bubble wrap but apparently it wasn't enough.

Have you shipped cookies before? Any tips or techniques to share? I'd love to start sending cookie bouquets as gifts as well but have no idea how to ship an entire bouquet, these are just the cookies on a stick...

here are some links to other threads about shipping/packing cookies. I hope they are helpful!

I've shipped 2 using UPS. I just wrapped the boquet in that thick ceullophane and let them do the rest of the bubble wrap, peanuts etc. It's a bit pricy but they both got there in one piece!

I've shipped cookie bouquets........I just shrink wrapped the bouquets and wrapped the whole thing in tons of bubble wrap and made sure nothing jiggled in the box.....I think the shrink wrap is what really helped it out though, they keep the cookies in place!!

I always shrink wrap when I ship. I use a lot of bubble wrap and peanuts also.

I shrink wrap each cookie, then I put bubble wrap bags over each shrink wrapped cookies. I put the whole bouquet in a big cello bag and wrap that with bubble wrap. When I put it in the box I fill with lots of peanuts. Its a lot to do but since my customers pay good money to get them intact its well worth it.
