How Do I Wrap Christmas Treats?
This is the fun part! Get creative! The fun Fudge In A Cookie Cutter idea from above would look really sweet wrapped in decorated cellophane bags with ribbon or a bow. You can also wrap little boxes with wrapping paper, gift treats in a cute mug! Use your imagination, just make sure they are properly sealed to maintain freshness. Christmas treats literally make the sweetest gifts! Perfect for teachers, staff/ co-worker gifts, and favor bags! My daughter and I love wrapping plates of goodies for our neighbors!
How Long Do Christmas Treats and Christmas Cookies Last?
It really depends on each recipe and the ingredients involved, but most Christmas cookies and candies last up to a couple of weeks if chilled, and even longer if they are frozen. Doughs that mostly consist of butter tend to taste the best up to a few days after making them, but they are still good for a couple of weeks.
The most important thing to do to keep your Christmas treats and Christmas cookies fresh longer is to package them properly. It is so worth it to invest in good quality airtight storage containers! You need to protect those goodies, after you put in all that hard work!
