Bear W Heart 50 Mm

A chubby teddy bear stands with a heart clutched to its chest, the sort of shape that turns a tray of plain biscuit dough into something worth wrapping in cellophane. The outline keeps the bear readable: round ears, a wide head, stubby arms folded around the heart so the two shapes stay distinct once they come out of the oven. Cutters like this earn their keep at Valentine's, christenings, baby showers and children's birthdays, and they stay useful the rest of the year for anyone who bakes for other people. The heart gives you an obvious place to pipe a name or a message, which is why the bear-and-heart pairing keeps turning up in baking books. Supplied as a two-file set, it is the kind of thing you make once and then keep in the drawer with the rolling pin.
