Need info on freezing cookies and fudge.?

Since I retired, I make about 800 cookies and about 25 lbs of fudge and truffles each Chrismas for friend and relitives. Most of this is done about 6 days before Chrismas which involves long days and nights preparing and baking. I’am getting too old for this! I do make some cookie dough and freeze it before baking; but I have never frozen a baked cookie, prepared fudge or truffles.

My old bones will appreciate your advice.
