Shipping frozen cookie dough is a great idea! Here are some tips to ensure your chocolate chip cookies arrive in perfect condition:
-
Flash Freezing: Before packing, flash freeze the cookie dough balls. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and freeze until solid. This will help preserve their shape and ensure they stay frozen during transit.
-
Packaging: Use insulated packaging like foam coolers or thermal bags to help keep the dough frozen. Place the dough in an airtight zippered freezer bag or wrap it tightly in plastic wrap to prevent freezer burn.
-
Dry Ice or Gel Packs: If you’re shipping in warmer weather, consider using dry ice or gel packs to maintain a low temperature. If using dry ice, be sure to label the package clearly and check shipping regulations.
-
Box and Heat Sealing: Use a sturdy shipping box that is well-sealed. You may want to use packing tape and ensure there are no gaps for air to enter.
-
Shipping Method: Choose a reliable shipping service that offers overnight or two-day shipping. This reduces the time the dough could be at risk of thawing.
-
Timing: Ship early in the week to avoid weekend delays. Aim for a delivery date when someone will be home to receive the package.
-
Add Instructions: Include baking instructions for your manager along with any details about storing the dough until she’s ready to bake.
-
Communicate: Let your manager know when to expect the package so she can take it out of the box and put it in the freezer right away.
With these tips, your frozen cookie dough should arrive safe and sound, ready for baking! Enjoy!
