FAQs

What types of icing can I use with this cutter?

This cutter works best with firm modelling paste, sugar paste, or fondant rolled to approximately 2-3mm thickness.

How do I get the best results for clean cuts?

Use firm, even pressure when pressing down and sliding the cutter. A light dusting of cornflour on your work surface and paste can prevent sticking. Ensure the paste is rolled to the correct thickness.

Can I use this cutter for non-edible crafts?

While designed for food use, it could be used with soft clays or playdough. However, ensure it is thoroughly cleaned if it will be used with food afterward.

What are the finished dimensions of the cutouts?

The approximate finished size of the cutouts is 80mm x 190mm.

How do I attach the cutouts to my cake?

You can attach the cutouts using a small amount of edible glue or a tiny bit of water applied with a fine brush.

Is the cutter dishwasher safe?

No, it is recommended to hand wash the cutter in warm, soapy water and allow it to air dry completely.

Can I make just one type of print at a time?

Yes, you can focus on using the sections that create your desired print (zebra, leopard, or giraffe) by carefully positioning and pressing the cutter.

Troubleshooting

Paste sticking to the cutter

Ensure the work surface and paste are lightly dusted with cornflour (or powdered sugar for darker pastes) before cutting. Ensure the paste is rolled to the correct thickness (approx. 2-3mm).

Cuts are not clean or shapes tear

Apply firm, even pressure when pressing down. Ensure the cutter slides back and forth gently to create a clean separation. Rolling the paste slightly thicker may also help.

Animal patterns are not well-defined

Ensure the modelling paste is smooth and has been kneaded sufficiently. Check that the cutter is being pressed directly down onto the paste without tilting.

Cutter is difficult to clean

Soak briefly in warm water if paste is dried on. Use a soft brush to gently dislodge any residue. Always ensure the cutter is completely dry before storing.
