Cookie cutters that set imaginations loose

Cutters and dough stamps that turn a wet Sunday into an adventure. Mix the sets, stamp a pattern on top, and let the kids decide what the story is. Flour everywhere, cookies that might last the week, and an afternoon you both remember.

01

Mix the themes, invent the story

A dinosaur in a party hat. A snowflake stamped on a heart. Nothing is stuck in its own set, so the tray that comes out of the oven is one nobody else has baked.

02

Small hands, big afternoon

Easy to press and easy to lift, so the kids do the fun part themselves. Baking together is the point, and on the days nobody can wait for an oven the same shapes work on play dough.

03

Goodie bags worth keeping

Three cookies, tied with a ribbon, cut in the shape of whatever the birthday kid is obsessed with this year. It beats another handful of plastic every time.

  1. 1Chill the dough firstTwenty minutes in the fridge while everyone finds an apron. Cold dough holds an edge, warm dough drags.
  2. 2Let them flour the cutterA quick dip in flour stops the dough sticking inside the walls, so the shape drops straight out. Good job for a four-year-old.
  3. 3Press once, lift straight upNo twisting. One firm press gives a clean edge, and a clean edge is much easier to decorate.

Three tricks for baking with a helper.

Every order ships with a small card saying exactly this, so the shapes stay sharp even when there are more hands on the bench than there is bench.

The same three tricks work on play dough. These are kitchen tools rather than toys, so they are for ages 3 and up with an adult on hand.

Baking is not for you? No problem. Playing is for everyone.

We also sell the cookies already baked, in any of our shapes. Pick how many of each one you want and we do the flour, the chilling and the washing up. Goodie bags sorted the night before, rather than at midnight.
