I have used extras and practice cookies to experiment with freezing. I heat seal my decorated cookies in individual bags, then group a few together, wrap in plastic, then wrap in foil, then place in a plastic container (with lid) then I put in the freezer. Each week I remove some cookies from the freezer. Keeping them in the heat sealed bag and place in the cabinet - dont stack them or the icing will stick to the bag during thawing. The longest I left in the freezer is a month. It was as if time stood still, like they had just been baked and decorated. My experience, is get them in the freezer straight away. Dont wait a week to see if they will get eaten before freezing. If you do, then they taste like week old cookies . I have people ask how long they last. Now I can say, if you know you are not going to eat them right away, freeze them, if properly wrapped, they will last a month. I need to next try 5 to 8 weeks.
