How do you make cookie cutters?

Answer 1

You can cut strips from a disposable aluminum pan or buy metal ribbon. You will need special snips to cut.

Bend to desired shape. You can trace a shape onto paper and then try to follow the outline. To make bending easier use different shapes like a ruler or a pen.

I really do not recomment making cookie cutters as a casual project. They are simply too inexpensive and easy to buy. Homemade cookie cutters often have sharp edges.

For a custom cookie cutters, search the net. There are artisans who will make them to order.
For a quick cookie cutter in a pinch, just use an inverted juice glass. And you can always cut dough free form with a sharp knife. Make sure the dough is very chilled first.
