- No brown sugar, corn sugar, honey, or
molasses should be used. The baked goods will be too soft and
possibly become moldy. Only white table sugar should be used.
- Chocolate & butterscotch can be used
in baked goods. Once chocolate has been baked into the product
and has the chance to take up moisture from the batter, the chocolate
will stay rather firm.
- Bar cookies and brownies are the best
bets for safe packing and are quickest for baking large quantities.
Baked goods should be wrapped tightly in aluminum foil, which
provides the best barrier against humidity.
- Pack goodies in sturdy boxes and surround
them with foam packaging material such as Styrofoam "peanuts."
