Ateco 11-Piece Graduated Round Cookie Cutter Set

The Ateco line of boxed cutter sets includes cookie cutters with holiday and seasonal designs; a bridge set; sets with hearts, stars, animals, toy shapes, alphabet letters, gingerbread families; mini cookie cutters; dog bone biscuit cutters; pie cutters; aspic or jelly cutters; and biscuit/pastry cutters - some come in boxes, and others come in storage cans, like this one. This set has 11 plain round stainless steel cutters in graduated shapes, from 3/4 inch to 3 5/8 inches. They nest perfectly in their storage can, which has a tight lid so the cutters don't spill out into the drawer.

I only use a few of these round cutters on a regular basis though. I find that most of the cutters are too small for anything other than specialty baking. Although Ateco says that their cutters are dishwasher-safe, I hand wash mine because I've found that the dishwasher doesn't always get them clean.

This is great set. The 11 cutters are conveniently stored in a little tin. They can not only be used as cookie cutters, but also as a ring mold for wonderful plate presentations (providing you don't need lots of height), and a friend recently used them to cut off the crusts of cocktail pumpernickel bread for tea sandwiches. The smaller cutters can be used to cut holes in the sugar cookie dough of larger cookies. If you bake half with and half without the hole in the middle, you can add raspberry jam to the ones without holes, sprinkle powdered sugar on the ones with holes, and combine the two. I too hand wash mine.

Everything you said it was in your advertisement and more. I use it almost daily in my restaurant for not only cookies, but pastry, veg, cold meats etc...great product and great packaging!

Excellent product, and at a great price. The design of this box makes it a great space saver, and you'll never have to buy another round cookie cutter, because you'll find every size you need, from biscuit-size to the little cutters you need to cut out the center hole in donuts. The cutters are great quality, and they wash beatifully in the dishwasher.

My 3 year old daughter never ate sandwiches until I cut them into shapes. The circles are some of her favorites. She lines them up by size on her plate and it makes lunch fun (and she actually eats!)

I always wash them by hand and cut a paper towel to fit inside the tin, that way any extra cumbs are visible and I can clean them up and the paper towel is easy and quick to replace.
