Ideas for Giving Cookies as a Gift

Baking desserts is a great gift idea for a holiday party or friend's birthday party. Everyone appreciates some morsels to snack on during the party and loved eating the leftovers when you leave. There are many extra touches you can do to make the gift as special as it can be. The presentation should be memorable after all the work you did baking.

Tins have been a favorite choice for a long time because they can be decorative and used after the party. A colorful bowl or casserole dish can also be a unique idea because they are also usable after the occasion. A decorative box can be wrapped like a present and can also be used at a later time for another gift. Of course, make sure you wrap everything in cellophane before putting them in the box.

Glass Jar

One of the best options for a dynamic cookie presentation is a clear glass pitcher. The cookies will be on display fully in an item for which everyone can find useful afterward. Put a ribbon and bow on top for effect and you can even put a cookie cutter on top. Make a gift card to hand from the handle to let everyone know who brought them.

If you make different kinds of cookies, layer them inside the jar to show off your assortment of shapes and colors. Any array of Paradise Candied Fruit color will shine through brightly. Put food coloring in the different cookies to make a rainbow of layers in the pitcher. You can even attach the recipe if you are willing to let your secret out, you may be invited back later to enjoy someone else's baking.
