Evening /ck/ (It is evening over there right?)

Anyway, i need some advice for a friend of mine.

Story goes that he needs to bake cookies and such for an event at his local gathering in 2 weeks time.(the 14th) However, the cookies have already been baked and iced(Milk, sugar and whatnot)

Is there a way for them to be kept fresh and edible till the 14th? Or is everybody there gonna crap their guts and suffer food poisoning if they do.

Oh and he has made about...a thousand of them.

Many thanks /ck/

well it kind of depends what kind of cookies. I can imagine some moist style of cookies wouldn't really at their prime in 2 weeks, but other cookies like traditional German Christmas cookies, are always made months in advanced (kinda dry style crumbly cookies).

I would just put them all in large ziplock bags and put them in the pantry or something. Maybe a dozen in each bag with a quarter of a slice of white bread in each bag with them. When the white bread dries out, replace it with another.

Gingerbreads should be fine because they usually aren't super moist anyway.

If your pantry or whatever is nice and cold then I personally wouldn't bother with the fridge, but if you're worried that they'll get too warm somehow then maybe put them in tupperware in the fridge, though don't push them to the back and keep an eye to make sure they aren't getting wet. (You know how some shitty refrigerators make everything kind of damp? Not good for your cookies)

And yep the icing should be fine for either method.
