Unicorn
This 4″ unicorn cookie cutter ($6) is the perfect way to make dessert more magical. Don’t forget to add some extra sparkle to your cookies by adding this edible glitter.
Platter Cookie Cutter Set
The individual cookie cutters in each “platter set” ($18-$82) appear to be oddly shaped. But when they’re put together in a perfect circle, they create an eye-catching cookie platter. Just use your imagination (and your decorating skills) to create celebratory platters for any occasion.
Shark Snack Attack
Celebrate shark week any time of the year with this clever snack attack set of cookie cutters ($15). The three-piece set includes a shark, surfer and a surfboard—with a big ol’ shark bite!
Bigfoot / Sasquatch
Out of the woods and straight to your kitchen, the legend of Bigfoot comes to life with this Sasquatch cutter ($6). Bonus: It can also be used as a mold for making some of our favorite pancake recipes!
Dinosaur Fossils
We think this collection of fossil cookie cutters ($12) is dino-mite! The six-piece set includes stegosaurus, T-rex and triceratops shapes, plus three embossing stamps for the bones.
A Custom Selfie
Here’s a new take on the “selfie.” These custom cookie cutters ($40) can be made to look like you or your favorite person, which is a great option for a special birthday or anniversary party.
Succulents
Succulents, the popular houseplants, also make beautiful cookies with this potted flower cookie cutter ($5). Use your imagination to design your favorite flower pot. Try bright colors, stripes, swirls or polka dots!
Shape Shifters
The possibilities are endless with these shape shifter cookie cutters ($25). Each of the 20 cookie cutters “shape shifts” into multiple designs. For example, a fish can also be a pirate, the skull can be used to make a ballerina, and the adorable dog can be a heart.
Piñata
This piñata cookie cutter ($6.50-$8) is super festive and fun! Choose a 3″ small, 4″ medium or 5″ large size cutter for your party needs. No time to decorate with colored icing? Use this confetti cake batter cookie recipe instead.
Coffee & Donuts
Was there ever a better pairing than coffee and donuts? This adorable coffee and donuts cookie cutter set ($8) comes with templates for easy decorating.
Mason Jars
There are so many things you can do with reusable glass jars, which is why we love this set of mason jar cookie cutters ($8). Pipe your initials on the mason jar cookie or try “filling” each one with hearts or flowers.
