Circle W Star

Two shapes that have never gone out of fashion in a biscuit tin: the round and the star. This cutter puts them together, a circular outline with a star worked into the design, which is why it turns up for so many different occasions. Christmas trays, bonfire night, a sheriff-badge cowboy party, or simply a batch of rounds that wanted to be something more than plain rounds. The circle brings the familiar biscuit shape that stacks neatly in a tin and takes icing without fuss. The star is the reason to reach for this one instead of an ordinary ring cutter, and it gives children something to aim at when they are still learning to press straight down and lift. Small, simple and endlessly reusable, the sort of cutter that quietly stays in the baking drawer for years.
