Keep it simple with a glass container and gingerbread cookies. We filled the container with coarse sugar and tucked the cookies inside. Tie a festive ribbon like this one around the container and finish with a bow. Get creative and add a hand lettered chalkboard to the container …

… or purchase a sweet hand made Posecard like this one from Love Lettering. 

Gift Wrapping Tip: Add the ribbon to the glass container before you fill it with coarse sugar.

Disposable wood trays are a cost-effective option for holiday entertaining and hostess gift packaging. This clear top wood tray/box was filled with jam thumbprints, chocolate chip shortbread, candy cane drops and star shortbread cookies from Bake Sale Toronto and would make a great hostess gift!

We created a protective tray liner by laminating buffalo plaid wrapping paper so that the cookies would have a festive backdrop.

White Sharpie paint markers were used to add a hand lettered message to the acrylic top. Add your own message or copy ours by tracing the lettering printable in the download at the end of this post.

These decorative sugar and gingerbread cookies are almost too cute to eat!

Bake Sale is taking orders for all of these cookies until December 18, 2018.

Gift Wrapping Tip: If you want to add a ribbon to the box like we did - make sure to position your lettering on the acrylic top to include space for the ribbon.
