Care Instructions
First thing to note with tin cookie cutters is that Moisture is the ENEMY of your cookie cutters. Always has been and always will be.
Tin cookie cutters should be gently washed by hand (avoiding the use of
anything abrasive), and dried promptly to prevent rust. Do not leave them in a sink full of water, or to air dry! They will rust. We suggest the following for the initial cleaning: set your oven on the warm setting, and wash your cookie cutters one at a time. After each one is washed and roughly dried, put them on a clean baking sheet. When all of the cookie cutters are clean, turn your oven off, and put the whole baking sheet in your warm oven. The oven will help dry in the places you can not reach. Basically you're just wanting to get them dried quickly, and thoroughly. Obviously, this method does not apply to the plastic 3D cuttes. More on those below.
Avoid having the cookie cutters come into contact with anything acidic, as the tinplate can wear off. As mentioned before, tin cookie cutters can be easily bent, so store them carefully. You can hang them on peg board, or store them loosely in bins or drawers. If you put them in any container like this, be careful when sorting through them or putting them away not to force them, as this can result in bending. Also, as the cookie cutters hit against each other they can ding the tinplate and thus cause rusting.
Plastic Cookie Cutters
We print our cutters on a 3D printer, using a high quality food safe PLA. The cutters we make are to be washed by hand only in warm soapy water and are not dishwasher safe. Putting the cutters in a dishwasher could melt, warp or otherwise damage the PLA. Hot water is the enemy of plastic cookie cutters.
HAND WASH ONLY! NOT dishwasher safe, avoid expoure to hot water/heat, as this can cause the cutters to warp. Hand wash towel dry only.
In most cases, yes.

We manufacture two kinds of cookie cutters right here in our Pleasant Valley, Missouri facility. Each kind is designed to fit two different needs. We would love to make one for you. Here are the quick facts to help you decide which method is best for you.
Plastic 3D Printed Cookie Cutter
Tin Cookie Cutter
Let us quote your custom cookie cutter project. Call Toll Free (866)756-6543 or email info@cookiecutter.com
Metal cookie cutters are durable and easily cut through dough, while plastic cookie cutters are affordable and a good choice for anyone who doesn't want to handle a sharp cookie cutter. Plastic cutters are also great for kids to cut holiday shapes out of cookie dough, playdough, and clay.
Stainless steel and copper cookie cutters are mostly rust resistant, but can rust if exposed to corrosive cleaners, high humidity and/or high salinity products such as sea salt. It's also suggested to wash and dry metal cookie cutters immediately after using them to prevent rust.
When looking for cookie cutters, start by considering what occasions you plan on using them. There are cookie cutters for Christmas, Halloween, birthdays, and other holidays and events. Next, choose cookie cutters made with the material you need, such as metal or plastic. Each has its own benefits, so research what is best for you. Finally, consider if you will need a container to store your cookie cutters to hold them in between uses.
Cookie molds are used to make cookies with more intricate designs, while cookie cutters usually cut dough into different shapes.
The main types of cookie cutters are made from tin plated steel, plastic, stainless steel, aluminum, copper, and wood. Many of these are also available in different holiday and special occasion themes.
For Eggs
Use cookie cutters in various shapes to make eggs that are irresistible. We have cookie cutters with handles that makes it easy to use them over a hot frying pan. They make the cutest egg.
As Christmas ornaments.
Just cut out and bake your favorite cookie in festive Christmas shapes and make a small hole in the top of the cookie. Let it dry and then add some ribbon to make the cookie into an ornament for your Christmas tree.
As Candle Forms
If you like to make tea candles, use cookie cutters as a form. Cover a sheet pan with parchment paper and add a small candlewick in the center. Heat your wax and let it cool slightly and then pour the wax while pressing down on the cookie cutter.
For the Birds
The winter months are hard for birds to find anything to eat. Use cookie cutters to make forms for pressed bird seed and gelatin, and then add a ribbon and hang the “ornaments” outside for the birds. See how to make these on Thrifty Jinxy.
Baby Shower Reveal Cookies
Layer some cookies that you have cut into the shape of a onesie with a cookie cutter and add small candies to the center in both pink and blue. Make the sweetest ever shower centerpiece. See the project on Craft Storming.
Pastry Stars for slumber party.
Use cookie cutters to make pastry stars and then add them to taco cups that you have cooked in a muffin tin. They make a great mood setter for a slumber party. See how to do them here.
For a Party Platter.
Use several different cookie cutters to cut both deli meats and cheeses into shapes. Then layer each shape on a platter.
This would be a super idea for any themed party or even just cut them into football shapes for the upcoming Super bowl!
To Decorate Pie Crusts.
Make your pie and then roll out a circle of pie crust dough. Use small cookie cutters to cut out interesting shapes and lay them on top of the pie and bake. Martha Stewart would love this idea!
For Kitchen Decorations.
Another Gardening Cook fan Retia Shealy suggested using cookie cutters as a kitchen decoration. She says “Mine are hung on my kitchen wall above my windows! I enjoy them year around!!” Great idea Retia!

One of the fans of The Gardening Cook on Facebook, Deverea Northcutt suggested this idea. She said “I have five sons. When they were little, I would cut different sandwiches for their lunch with cookie cutters.
Deverea said that she always decorated the bag and had napkins to go with the shape theme. Lots of fun and memories.” What a great idea (and what a great mom!)
For Pumpkin Carving.
Don’t carve your pumpkin with a knife. Use small cookie cutters and a rubber mallet to press the cutters into the pumpkin to make interesting shapes for your pumpkin face.
For Jello Jigglers.
Jello is the perfect medium for cookie cutters. It forms a fairly solid shape when done. But don’t just cut it into squares.
