my packaging has been everevolving thanks to this site!!!
I've learned a bunch about how to do it, and their are so many styles...
I thought it would be interesting to get more ideas.

my latest one came out nice (see attached)
cello bag, sealed with the Eurosealer (Thanks TracyLH!)
cardstock cut and folded over the end
hole punches though the whole thing (avoiding the seal line) and a ribbon tie

These look awesome! I have never sold any cookies before but have an order for October. I love the look of your packaging. May I ask how much you would charge for these cookies?

these were a gift for my mom (and the farm manager)..
My typical prices are $1/inch...
And the cows averaged about 3", so $3 each and that includes the packaging
However, all that hair took freaking forever so I would want to charge more...
Also this being a two step process with the card and ribbon, it took longer too. So I would want to consider adding a fee for the packaging like others do...

Anyway I'm not the best at pricing...

Most cookies in the gallery are not packaged so I was hoping people might post photos of their packaging here...

Hi Jen I do cookies and love doing them. When I do cookies in a pkg I tie a pretty ribbon at the top. I must say I have seen here on CC the cardstock and ribbon & I love that way better on my next order I will try that. Your cookies look amazing by the way. Oh ya don't feel bad charging more for your cookies you are worth it.

I am glad this subject came up, I am looking for 5"x5"boxes for some cookies I would like to make to give away. I want to make those new stackable cookies that Wilton just came out with. One is a flower and one is the face of a bear. If anyone has any idea where to find these let me know.

Thanks leannsloan, I checked out BRP website, they do have a 6x6x2-1/2 box, I would like it the height to be around 1 inch if possible, but if that is all that I can find I may have to get that one. If anyone else has any other box sites and you please let me know. Thanks.
