How to Package Rice Crispy Treats to Mail

A cookie tin---old style! It will keep them from getting crushed also.

Our sons favorite treat is Rice Krispy Treats and they are included in each care package that we mail to Irag!!! I cut it into single serving pieces and wrap each piece tightly in saran wrap. I then put 3 or 4 pieces into a plastic ziploc bag and pull as much air out as I can. I then pack them into plastic or metal container and send them on their way!!!

Yep, do what I did........I sent chocolate chip cookies to my BIL in the army to Germany many times..........try to find a metal coffee can, or a metal something.....line it with aluminum foil, put the treats in there...........put the foil over the top of the treats.......put the lid on.........next, seal the lid on with packing tape.....it's a bear to get off, but it keeps the cookies fresh.....sealed in tight.............then put them in a box, and ship them........I did shipping for like 3 days or so......but one time it took over a week.........and he said they were warm and just like they came out of the oven......he had to fight off his friends because they could smell them..........

I don't think the foil will hurt the treats.......so you should be fine......if it gets too hot, it might melt the marshmallow, but then he could have a rice crispy cake!!! You can't avoid it getting hot in the summer......so good luck..........let me know if they arrive in good condition!

Take care.....and you're a good daughter!

I certainly don't think they'll get moldy in just a few days! I would get some of those ziplock/glad containers and arrange them in there and seal it shut. You could add some Press-n-Seal on top if you like (I LOVE that stuff) but they will probably stay just fine inside the box. Put that inside a bigger box and ship! I think the post office has good rates on their flat rate shipping boxes.

Just pack them in a ziplock with as much air removed as possible. put in a box and mail... In a few days they won't get moldy or stale.
