1 i think, i would only use 1 cookie to store anythig i want.....but i am not sure you might wanna check that out first.
by 1 i mean you can send only 1 cookie PER page, that's what i do and i think, i could be wrong

A webserver can store a maximum of 20 cookies per client.
Generally it is best to only use 1 cookie with some sort of ID in it, then look up any other information needed in a database.

To elaborate on what the others have said you can serialize an array and send it as your cookie to store larger amounts of data, remember that any data you set will have to be sent every time a page is accessed so I will hog bandwidth if you send lots of data.
