Christmas tree cookie cutter with stars and baubles

The Christmas tree cutter with lovely star and ball details brings all the Christmas spirit to a biscuit. The robust stainless steel mould creates a festively decorated Christmas tree that will bring joy to any Advent plate. The mould is suitable for classic butter biscuits, Milanese biscuits, gingerbread and pointed biscuits as well as for fondant, marzipan and flower paste. The decorated Christmas tree looks particularly beautiful as a motif for Christmas cookies, as a topper on cupcakes, cake pops and muffins or as the main motif for Advent cakes. The cutter is also an enrichment for festive aperitifs and Christmas buffets. Cheese slices, sausage leaves or puff pastry flakes can be turned into festive Christmas tree bites that add an atmospheric touch to aperitif platters and sandwich plates. Use baking starch instead of flour when dusting the work surface and mould. The fine starch glides better, absorbs less moisture from the dough and leaves no visible marks when baking. Roll out the dough to a thickness of about 0.5 cm, cut out the Christmas trees and carefully lift them onto the baking tray lined with baking paper. Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven until golden brown, temperature and baking time according to the recipe. A few points will help to ensure success. If the dough sticks when you cut it out, it is usually too warm; a quarter of an hour in the fridge will help. Do not roll out the dough too thinly, otherwise narrow contours will break when you turn it over. Cold butter is a must for kneading dough, it holds the structure together. After cooling, decorate the Christmas trees with green royal icing, icing or tempered chocolate. The integrated stars and balls can be accentuated with color, for example in red, gold or silver. Sugar pearls, edible glitter and colorful sprinkles add festive sparkle. The stainless steel cutter is dishwasher-safe and will accompany you for many Christmas seasons. A festive helper for atmospheric Advent baking.
