BAKERLOGY Magic Hands Moon Phases cookie cutter 🍪
Description:
This cookie cutter brings a decorative touch to biscuits and craft projects, combining a hand motif with moon-phase details to add subtle texture to fondant, dough and clay. It is compact and easy to use, helping to create uniform shapes quickly while keeping delicate details intact.
Key Points
The cutter produces a detailed imprint of a hand with distinct moon phases, useful when working with shortbread dough or sugar paste. It is 3D printed, which allows for clearer lines and consistent depth where pattern precision matters. The release is easier if the tool is dusted lightly with icing sugar or flour before pressing into a 5 mm-thick sheet of dough. 🍪
Cleaning is straightforward because the cutter is compatible with the dishwasher, so post-bake tidying takes less time. For the best results with biscuits that keep their shape, use a recipe that does not spread excessively while baking, according to the manufacturer. The cutter also works for non-edible crafts such as polymer clay and rolled fondant. 🎨

Benefits
The compact 9.8 cm footprint makes it easy to store, and it is practical for small batches and themed baking sessions. The moon-phase accents bring a subtle, artisanal aesthetic to each piece without extra effort. For craft use, the cutter transfers fine detail to clay, making it useful for ornaments and personalised decorations. 🌓
A further advantage is the consistent depth from 3D printing, which helps when producing multiple identical shapes for events or gift boxes. Note that very soft or highly sticky doughs may require a light dusting to prevent sticking. According to the manufacturer, using a no-spread dough recipe yields the cleanest edges.
Usage Recommendations
Before cutting, chill the dough briefly if it is warm to help maintain sharp edges. Lightly dust the cutter with icing sugar or plain flour to aid release and avoid distorting the motif. For fondant, press gently and lift straight up to preserve the moon-phase detail, then transfer using a thin spatula or smooth board. When using with polymer clay, work on a non-stick surface and clean the cutter immediately after use to keep the fine pattern free of residue.
