Pastry Cutter
From DT Online
Description
Biscuit Cutters (aka Biscuit Cutters or Cookie Cutters) are shapes commonly made from Tinplate, Stainless Steel or Plastics which are pushed through soft dough to produce cut-outs in the shape of the cutter's outline.
Features and Uses
Cutters are available in a variety of geometric and natural (i.e. animal and plants form) shapes. They are pushed by hand through pastry dough to produce the required biscuit or pastry shape. They are therefore a good example of Stamping or Blanking because it is the piece cut out which is needed.
DT Online Buyers' Guide
- Metal cutters may have quite sharp edges so choose Plastics for young children to use.
