On the source system, within cygwin, zip up everything you want, with
option -y:
cd /; zip -ry cygwin . -x home
or
cd /cygdrive/c; zip -ry cygwin cygwin64 -x ...
On the target system, install a minimal cygwin unzipping environment:
copy files unzip.exe, cygwin1.dll, cygbz2-1.dll into a subdirectory
called bin
Use that unzip to unpack your zip file. Voilà !
