Cookie cutter Arkolat PL45B19-204 — star shape, metal baking cutter

Arkolat PL45B19-204 is a metal cookie cutter shaped as a star, designed to cut uniform cookies, biscuits and pastry pieces from rolled dough, fondant or marzipan. The compact, open‑edged design creates a clear star outline and allows for easy pressing, releasing and cleaning. The cutter is intended for home bakers and small-scale seasonal or event baking where a consistent shape is required.

Advantages

The metal construction provides durable, stable cutting edges that retain shape during repeated use, while the smooth interior reduces sticking and simplifies dough release. Its compact size makes it convenient to store and handle, and the simple, one-piece form means there are no joints that can trap dough or complicate cleaning. The star profile produces clean, well-defined cookies suitable for decorating or gifting.

Suitable for

• Cutting rolled cookie dough for biscuits and shortbread
• Shaping fondant, marzipan and similar cake decorations
• Home baking for holidays, parties and themed events
• Small batch or occasional pastry cutters for hobby bakers

Key specifications

• Shape: five-point star

How to use

Lightly flour the work surface and rolled dough before pressing the cutter straight down to achieve a clean cut. Lift the cutter and gently release the cut shape from the dough; if necessary, use a small spatula to transfer shapes to a baking tray. For fondant or marzipan, press firmly and lift to remove the shaped piece. After use, remove excess dough and wash according to care guidance to maintain the cutter's surface and cutting performance.

Usage recommendations

To prolong cutter life and ensure consistent results, avoid excessive force when cutting very stiff dough and dry thoroughly after washing to prevent corrosion. Lightly dust the cutter with flour or cornstarch when working with sticky materials like fondant. Store stacked with protective separation if storing with other metal cutters to avoid edge wear.
