FAQs

What are the exact dimensions of each cutter?

The set includes three sizes: Small - 18mm, Medium - 22mm, and Large - 30mm in diameter.

Can these cutters be used for non-edible materials?

These cutters are specifically designed and made from food-safe plastic for use with edible materials like fondant and icing. Their use with non-edible materials is not recommended and may damage the cutters.

How do I clean the daisy cutters?

Wash them by hand with warm, soapy water after each use. Rinse well and allow them to air dry completely before storing.

What types of flowers can I make with these cutters?

While ideal for daisies, they are also suitable for creating other floral shapes such as gerberas and chrysanthemums, depending on how you shape the petals.

Are these cutters dishwasher safe?

No, it is recommended to hand wash these plastic cutters to maintain their shape and integrity. Dishwasher cycles can be too harsh for the material.

Can I use these cutters with cookie dough?

While primarily designed for icing and fondant, they may be used with firm cookie dough. However, the detailed petal shapes might not come through as clearly as with softer mediums.

Troubleshooting

Cutters leave rough edges on icing.

Ensure your icing (fondant or gum paste) is slightly chilled and firm before cutting. For gum paste, work quickly. Dusting your surface and the cutter lightly with cornstarch can also help.

Icing sticks to the cutter.

Lightly dust the cutter with cornstarch or powdered sugar before pressing into the icing. Ensure the icing itself is not too soft or sticky. If using fondant, letting it rest for a few minutes after kneading can improve its texture for cutting.

Cutters feel flimsy or seem to bend.

These cutters are made of quality plastic, but excessive force can cause them to flex. Apply even, steady pressure when cutting. Avoid twisting or forcing the cutter through very thick icing.
