Product Information

Full details

This set of four PME Floral Cutters is designed for cake decorators and bakers looking to efficiently create beautiful petal shapes for sugar flowers and edible decorations. The key benefit is the one-motion cutting action that produces consistent results across four different sizes. A caveat to consider is the material; while durable ABS, it requires careful separation from tools used with non-food materials.

FAQs

What are the dimensions of the petals created?

The set includes four cutters that produce petal shapes measuring approximately 30mm, 35mm, 45mm, and 50mm at their widest points.

Can these cutters be used in a dishwasher?

It is not recommended to use a dishwasher. Hand washing with warm, soapy water and thorough drying is the best method for care.

Are these cutters suitable for biscuits?

Yes, they can be used for biscuits if the dough is firm enough to hold the shape. They are primarily designed for softer pastes like fondant and gum paste.

How many cutters are in this set?

This set contains four floral petal cutters.

Can I use these cutters for non-edible materials?

Yes, they are suitable for craft clays and other non-edible mediums. However, it is crucial to keep these separate from tools used for food to avoid cross-contamination.

What is the material of the cutters?

The cutters are made from durable ABS plastic.

Do the cutters come in different colors?

This specific product listing is for the white set (MPN: FP510).

Troubleshooting

Cutters are sticking to the paste.

Lightly dust your work surface and the cutter with cornstarch or powdered sugar before pressing into the paste. Ensure the paste is not too soft or sticky.

Petal edges are not clean.

Ensure you are pressing straight down and pulling the cutter straight up. For thicker pastes, a firmer, even press may be needed. Consider slightly chilling the paste if it's too soft.

Uneven petal shapes.

Apply even pressure when pressing the cutter into the paste. Make sure the paste is rolled to a consistent thickness.

Difficulty releasing the cut shape.

Gently wiggle the cutter after pressing and before lifting. You can also use a small, thin tool to help lift the edges if needed, being careful not to damage the shape.
