What you’re looking at is an Impulse Sealer. These machines come in various sizes and are used to heat seal packages. Fantasy Cookie did a version of this for us in a test for Aunt Erma’s. We have a test package from Fantasy Cookie that was sealed over six months ago and the cookies are stable. No mold, no moisture. Sealing is critical for shelf life. Up until now, our product has been packed on food grade tissue paper. After 6 weeks or so we have to replace stale stock. We’re picking up an Impulse sealer this week so when we deliver to Whole Foods and other places, product will be ok on the shelves for months.
