FAQs

What size is the cutter?

The cutter is 85mm in diameter and splits into four triangular sections.

What materials can I use this cutter with?

It is suitable for fondant, sugar paste, marzipan, and similar edible decorating mediums.

Can I use this cutter for regular baking?

While designed for icing, you might experiment with soft cookie dough, but the intricate detail may not transfer well without careful handling.

How do I clean the cutter?

Wash gently with warm, soapy water, rinse, and dry thoroughly. Avoid harsh cleaning materials.

Does the cutter come in different colors?

The product is listed under the color family 'Black' for identification purposes, but the cutter itself is typically made of plastic and is not colored in a way that transfers to the cake.

What is the 'Broderie Anglaise' effect?

Broderie Anglaise is a type of decorative embroidery that features cut-out eyelets, often resembling a floral or patterned effect. This cutter mimics that delicate, pierced look on edible surfaces.

Are the Rose and Bell designs separate cutters?

No, the single 85mm cutter is designed to create both Rose and Bell motifs when its four triangular sections are applied.

Troubleshooting

Fondant sticks to the cutter.

Ensure the fondant is not too thin or sticky. Lightly dust your work surface and the fondant with cornflour or icing sugar before cutting. You can also try chilling the fondant briefly before cutting.

The design imprint is not clear.

Apply firm and even pressure when pressing the cutter into the fondant. Ensure the fondant is evenly rolled and has a smooth surface. If using a dusting of cornflour, make sure it's minimal.

The cutter splits unevenly.

Ensure the cutter is aligned correctly before pressing down. The design is intended to be split into four equal triangles; check for any obstructions or damage that might prevent clean separation.
