FAQs

Can I use these for cookie dough?

These cutters are specifically designed for sugarcraft materials like fondant or flower paste. They may not be sharp or deep enough for standard cookie dough.

How many cutters are in the set?

The set includes four different styles of tropical leaves.

What is the size range of the leaves?

The leaves range from 50mm to 100mm in size.

Are these dishwasher safe?

It is recommended to hand wash the cutters in warm, soapy water to preserve the integrity of the cutting edges.

Can I add color to the leaves?

Yes, you can use edible lustre dusts or gel colors to add texture and color after cutting.

How do I attach these to a cake?

You can use a small amount of water or edible glue to attach the leaves to your fondant-covered cake.

Troubleshooting

Paste sticking to the cutter

Ensure your work surface is properly dusted with cornflour and try lightly dusting the inside of the cutter.

Rough edges on cut leaves

Check that your sugar paste is not too soft; you may need to add a little Tylo powder to firm it up, or ensure your rolling thickness is exactly 2-3mm.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Preparation: Roll your sugar paste out to a 2-3mm thickness.
