Know before you buy
The cutter is designed with an apple pattern on one side and a leaf pattern on the other. Simply flip the tool over to select your desired design, place it over your rolled-out dough, and press down firmly to imprint the pattern.
Yes, the cutter measures 12 inches in diameter, which is sized to fit standard 9-inch or 10-inch pie plates with enough coverage to create a decorative top crust.
This tool is designed to imprint the decorative pattern onto the dough. If you want to create actual cutouts for ventilation, you may need to use a small knife to remove the center pieces after imprinting.
Yes, the cutter is made from durable plastic and is completely dishwasher safe, making cleanup straightforward after you finish your baking.
While not strictly required, lightly dusting the cutter with flour or chilling your dough slightly before pressing can help ensure a clean release and prevent the dough from sticking to the intricate details.
