Rooster cookie cutter with embossing

Rooster cookie cutter with embossing

The rooster cutter with internal embossing brings a farmhouse and country house atmosphere to your biscuit plate. The proud motif made of robust stainless steel is finely embossed with feathers, crest and wattles directly into the dough and makes every cookie an eye-catcher. The shape is suitable for classic butter biscuits, Milanese biscuits, gingerbread and pointed biscuits as well as for fondant, marzipan and flower paste. The rooster cutter is particularly popular for Easter, farmhouse children's birthdays, country house themed parties and as a motif for rustic cake decorations. The cutter can also be used for brunches and aperitifs. Cheese slices, sausage leaves or puff pastry flakes can be turned into original rooster bites that add a rustic-charming touch to aperitif platters and brunch buffets. It is best to dust the work surface and mould with baker's starch instead of flour. Baker's starch is much finer, reliably prevents sticking and remains invisible after baking. Roll out the dough to a thickness of about 0.5 cm, cut out the taps and carefully lift the motifs onto the baking tray lined with baking paper. Place the biscuits in the preheated oven and bake until golden brown. The baking temperature and duration vary depending on the type of dough and are specified in the respective recipe. To ensure that the fine embossing remains visible, pay attention to three things. The dough must be cold and firm, otherwise the motif will lose its contours. The thickness of the dough should be even, because thicker dough swallows up the details and thinner dough breaks. After cooling, decorate the cockerels with royal icing in vibrant shades of red, orange and brown. The embossing serves as a perfect guide for the lines with the cornet. A red comb, a golden yellow beak and colorful tail feathers make the motif particularly lively. The stainless steel cutter is dishwasher-safe and will last a long time. A helper with a strong character for rustic and Easter baking fun.
