Where to buy and what size favor bags do you need for cookies?
I've been asked this question many times, so thought I'd share.
I purchase my favor bags at Gifts International. The prices are great, but the shipping is a bit high so order a lot at a time!
My bags are organized in plastic shoe bins, by size.
Some of my bagged cookies.....
I WISH that I could purchase 4" x 8" bags! The 4" x 6" are often too short so I have to move up to a 5" wide bag. I really want 4x8ers!
If you know of somewhere to purchase bags of that size, please let me know in the comments!

I buy most of my bags at PaperMart. I believe they have the size you need.

They're out of stock right now, though. :(
Keep checking. They never stay out of stock for very long. I heat seal my bags and these work well.
DeleteThanks Becky! I'll keep checking!
DeleteI received an email from Linda who alerted me to 4" x 2" x 9" gusseted bags at Nashville Wraps.

These would be perfect when adding ribbon. Not sure about heat-sealing them because of the many layers of cello. Anyone with experience heat-sealing them? Thanks Linda!
I buy my bags from gifts intl as well and always wish they had 4x7" or 4x8"!! Very same problem...great size for most of my cookies but too short a lot of times when tying with ribbon. I'll have to check out paper mart as well- thanks!
ReplyDeleteLooks like the 4x8s are still out of stock. I've been buying the longer ones now at Gifts Int'l and just cutting them shorter.
DeleteI use my foodsaver appliance to heat seal cello bags; I hold the seal for three seconds, cancel the seal function and then lift - If it's left to seal through the entire 'seal' automatic sequence, the bag melts too much.
ReplyDeleteCool! Thanks!
