Gideon’s cookie size (diameter)

[TikiRob]

File under: “Hyper-Specific Question”…

Looking for a container to bring Gideon’s cookies back home after our trip next week. Anyone know the approximate diameter of these cookies? I’ve looked everywhere with no luck. I’d love to bring some sort of tube-like container but don’t want it to be too small or too big. We are packing light, so space is at a premium!

Thanks in advance.

They're about 4 ½ to 5 inches in diameter, maybe closer to 5.

Size can always be adjusted with a few well placed bites.

I remember the cookies coming well packaged in a box when I bought several. Can you leave them in the box?

Bring a few gallon sized ziploc bags and some sheets of waxed paper. You can wrap them up and stack them vertically in a ziploc and then hand carry them home in a carryon bag.

They always make it home in my belly, no size problems there

If anyone is curious, I got the official word directly from Gideon's: H 2” x W 4.25" x L 4.25"

They also shared the box sizes:
2 COOKIE BOX - H 2.25 x W 7.25 x L 5.75
4 COOKIE BOX - H 4.25 x W 4.25 x L 8.25
6 COOKIE BOX - H 4.25 x W 4.25 x L 13.25

I was looking for a "crush proof" solution for travel, but I may just put the box in my hard-sided carryon. Thanks all for the advice (and laughs).

We were just there this past September...Cookies are about 4-41/2 inches wide, we went to the Gideons Bakeshop in Orlando on our way from the airport, I pre ordered 10 cookies, they were all boxed and ready when I got there.
We ate 6 while in DW and took home 4, they were insanely good !!!!
