What are good things to bake, and then freeze and ship?

I love baking things for my sister, but I can't afford $20 a pop for second-day mail. What are good things to bake, then freeze, and then ship? (Just types of desserts, not necessarily recipes.) I already send a lot of pound cakes and chocolate chip cookies- any other ideas? Thanks all!

    ==================================
    Non-perishable foods:
    Homemade baked goods. Most cookies and candies are safe to ship except for cheesecake or other foods that contain a custard or cream filling. These fillings can support the growth of harmful bacteria. During transit, the tempera-ture may increase significantly, providing an ideal environment for bacterial growth that can spoil the food or make it harmful to eat. Here are some general tips for sending homemade baked goods:
    •Do not pack the food while it is hot so droplets of water do not condense on the inside surface of the package. Moisture promotes soggy goods and mold growth.
    •After cooling the food, pack it in plastic bags so air does not get in and cause spoilage, such as rancidity.
    •Pack the box so the contents do not shift. Layering will help. Use paper or packing material to fill empty spaces in the box.
    •Soft cookies, such as chocolate chip or sugar cookies, can crumble and break during shipping. Harder cookies, such as snack or bar cookies, ship better. Most homemade baked goods have a shelf life of about one week because they do not contain the preservatives (calcium or sodium propionate) that prevent mold growth. Commercially prepared baked goods have these added.

    Never send home-processed meat or cheese through the mail. The acidity and moisture content of these products are often unknown. Thus, they might contain and promote the growth of harmful bacteria.
