What customers say
Customers consistently praise the Star Plunger Cutter Set for its exceptional ease of use, making detailed decorating simple even for novices. The plunger mechanism ensures a clean release every time, which is crucial when working with delicate fondant or cookie dough.

This set is considered a highly effective tool that significantly streamlines the baking process, offering great results without frustration.
Know before you buy
These cutters are designed for use with fondant, gum paste, and cookie dough. They work best on materials that can be rolled out to a consistent thickness.
The plunger mechanism allows you to press the cut shape directly onto your cake or pastry surface. It also helps push the cut piece out of the cutter, ensuring clean edges and preventing the material from sticking.
While the durable plastic construction is sturdy, we recommend hand washing these cutters in warm, soapy water to maintain the integrity of the spring mechanism and ensure longevity.
The set includes three sizes: the large star measures 0.95 x 0.9 inches, the medium is 0.8 x 0.8 inches, and the small is 0.75 x 0.65 inches. All three cutters have a uniform height of approximately 1.8 to 1.9 inches for a comfortable grip.
Generally, no. However, if you are working with a particularly sticky dough or fondant, a very light dusting of cornstarch or powdered sugar on the cutter will help ensure a clean release.
