Ateco 5357 11 Piece Plain Round Cutter Set

The Ateco line of boxed cutter sets includes cookie cutters with holiday and seasonal designs; a bridge set; sets with hearts, stars, animals, toy shapes, alphabet letters, gingerbread families; mini cookie cutters; dog bone biscuit cutters; pie cutters; aspic or jelly cutters; and biscuit/pastry cutters - some come in boxes, and others come in storage cans, like this one. This set has 11 plain round stainless steel cutters in graduated shapes, from 3/4 inch to 3 5/8 inches. They nest perfectly in their storage can, which has a tight lid so the cutters don't spill out into the drawer.

I only use a few of these round cutters on a regular basis though. I find that most of the cutters are too small for anything other than specialty baking. Although Ateco says that their cutters are dishwasher-safe, I hand wash mine because I've found that the dishwasher doesn't always get them clean.

This is great set. The 11 cutters are conveniently stored in a little tin. They can not only be used as cookie cutters, but also as a ring mold for wonderful plate presentations (providing you don't need lots of height), and a friend recently used them to cut off the crusts of cocktail pumpernickel bread for tea sandwiches. The smaller cutters can be used to cut holes in the sugar cookie dough of larger cookies. If you bake half with and half without the hole in the middle, you can add raspberry jam to the ones without holes, sprinkle powdered sugar on the ones with holes, and combine the two. I too hand wash mine.

Nice cutters-solidly made, tall enough, and easy to clean. What more can you want?

Everything you said it was in your advertisement and more. I use it almost daily in my restaurant for not only cookies, but pastry, veg, cold meats etc...great product and great packaging!

I bake a lot of cookies. My mother baked a lot of cookies as did both of my grandmothers. I have every cutter these three women ever owned and an additional collection that seems to breed and grow in my kitchen drawers...each time I open them, there seems to be more. I purchased these graduated cutters sometime ago and I must say they get quite a work out. They are absolutely ideal for my needs. I bake a lot for friends, groups and clubs and have constant orders for various sizes. These work perfectly. They have a very nice keen edge to them and store well. As has been pointed out, they do rust so I always make sure they are well washed and well dried. A very, very thin coat of olive oil helps which is washed off each time I use them helps a lot. The price on this set is great. I paid almost three times the amount offered here for my set. I am delighted with mine.
