If it’s a box of cake, inform the person of its expiration date but it is usually printed on the side of the box. If it’s a box of cookies, it usually stays fresh and delicious for around a week. It is highly desirable to inform the person who will receive your gift that what you’re going to give is a food item.

So it would be a great notion if you try to purchase food items that is as much as possible fresh and at the same time home baked. There are services that offer almost all the kinds of baked sweet products, and you can try their cookie trays and Christmas gift baskets for a more presentable gift.
