The theme, as chosen by Taz-from-PR is....

Making designs other than the intended shape with a specific cookie cutter/ Using cookie cutters for another design that it was made for.

For example, making a butterfly in a flower cookie. Sometimes we get frustrated because we don't have a specific cutter, but we can use what we have and do awesome things. For how many designs do you use a cutter that you have? Or maybe, give some use to that seasonal cutter throughout the year.


Happy baking!

Ooh I'm so excited, I can actually participate in this one. Been really busy and not able to hang out here nearly at all, but I have been baking and decorating like crazy. I feel kind of bad, like I'm cheating on cakes and cuppies, but I LOVE doing cookies!

Here's my entry, for my sons Star Wars Jedi Academy party I used a large bell shaped cutter to make Darth Vader helmet cookie favors. I can't wait to see what everyone else does!

andpotts - what an ingenious use of the bell cutter icon_surprised.gif It really couldn't be more perfect. Your Darth Vaders look fantastic thumbs_up.gif

Love the Darth Vaders! I've got a few...

Ekco sold the cookie cutter as a "diamond". But --faster than a speeding bullet! -- I saw through its Clark Kent disguise and saw that it was REALLY the symbol of the man of steel... (Or maybe a sailboat!)


Hmmmm.... attachment didn't work the first time. Trying again....

An acorn is a baby tree....
But also can be a baby-with-a-pacifier, as you can see!

This cookie cutter is a chalice,
but it also makes a pretty dress.

No snow showers, this time of year?
Never fear!
This snowman cutter works for baby showers, too.

If you poured water into a "10 gallon" cowboy hat,
Would it make a good froggie habitat?

It seems that the imagination can REALLY go wild. I'm always curious about using cutters for something else. I will post some later... The ones posted here are AWESOME icon_biggrin.gificon_biggrin.gificon_biggrin.gificon_biggrin.gif

Another one that's sort of different than the intended use. The one above was a heart cutter with the point cut off. Not terribly original though. icon_smile.gif

I love this thread!! You all are so creative, and I love the way endymion speaks in rhymes -- do you do that in real life, or just here on CC? icon_wink.gif My favorite so far is the baby with pacifier. Keep the photos coming, please!

Thanks Bonnie. They're nowhere near as creative as endymion's but hopefully they spark an idea for someone.
