Hi,
I have done few cookies, for my own children really. But now we have a christmas fair coming up and i thought that it would be nice to have cookies on the table. ( decorated on the stick and wrapped nicely.)
The fair is 4th of december.I thought i would make around 300 cookies.
My problem is the storage and time management.For sure i cann't make cookies all one day before so they would be nice and fresh. i also need time for the icing on top to dry. could i bake the cookies earlier and store in the airtight container? If so, how much earlier i could bake and decorate and they would still taste nice and are crunchy?
Just a thought but I've read of freezing cookies for up to 6 months. Try decorating them and then freezing them until your date. Remember to be careful of the type icing used as I've heard some BC icings tend to melt after freezing due to condensation... Good luck 
I have made cookies and stored them in tupperware in the freezer for months. (Mostly because I needed only a few for a project, and had to do something with the rest!) They taste just fine. I wait to decorate them until I need them, though, just because of the icing I use. It gets cloudy when refrigerated or frozen.
The best answer to this question is for you to take some cookies the next time you make them, and put them in the freezer. Try one every so often to see how they are doing. With the recipe I use, they aren't all that crunchy to begin with. The texture before and after freezing is about the same.
Liis,
I just baked and decorated 200 cookies to send to my sister. Let me tell you, it was a long process, especially since I work full time. It took me a week to do that many and they take up a lot of room!!! My whole freezer and refrigerator was full of cookies without an inch to spare.
Do you have a deep freezer? I baked and decorated, wrapped in the plastic sleeves and tied very tight and then put 4 into each gallon size freezer bag and put them in the freezer. They did fine.
I hope this information is helpful. I used the No Fail Sugar Cookie recipe and cut them 3/8 inch thick. I also used Antonia's icing on them.

Thank you so much.
Cindy i sent you a pm.
Can you all see that i am panicking already. Maybe i should better stick with christmascakes and add on decorations. But then again, looking around here in cc and seeing those incredile cookies you make it makes me want to make some too. I am just worried that i am taking a way too big bite to be able to swallow.
