Cookie cutter ORION model 124901 — heart-shaped gingerbread cutter, universal size

ORION model 124901 is a heart-shaped cookie cutter designed for shaping gingerbread and other types of cookies. Available in metal or food-grade plastic, this universal-size cutter allows consistent, even cuts and is suitable for a range of doughs used in home baking, festive cookies and small-scale pastry production. Its simple form makes pressing into rolled dough straightforward, while the smooth edges facilitate easy release and quick cleaning.

Advantages

The cutter provides uniform heart-shaped pieces with minimal effort, helping maintain consistent portion sizes and presentation. Its universal size works well with most rolled dough thicknesses and recipe types. Construction in metal or plastic offers a choice between rigidity and lightweight handling, and both materials are compatible with routine washing and storage. The design is practical for repetitive use in domestic kitchens and in small professional settings.

• Decorating cookies prior to baking or for iced cookies

Key specifications

How to use

Roll dough to the desired thickness on a lightly floured surface. Press the heart-shaped cutter firmly into the dough, applying even pressure to ensure a clean cut.
