Embossed Cookie Cutters

Embossed cookie cutters are our favorite type of cookie cutters.  These cookie cutters stamp an inner design into the cookie which gives you the flexibility of decorating them or not.   They stand out on their own so decorating isn't necessary.

Our embossed cookie cutters are typically 1/2 inch deep with a 1/8 inch stamp offset.  Most bakers make their cookies 1/4 inch thick which works perfect with most of our embossed cookie cutters because the stamp will sit 1/8 inch in the dough.
