Cookie size FAQ

What size cookie cutter should I buy?

6.5 cm is the most versatile for detail and readability. Choose 5.5 cm for minis/party favours, and 7.5–8.5 cm for statement cookies or larger text.

Are these sizes measured across the cutter or the embosser?

Sizes are listed by diameter measured edge-to-edge across the cutter design. Embosser/debosser faces match the listed size so they pair cleanly.

Can you do custom and oversized designs?

Yes — we can produce custom sizes and oversized pieces (cake toppers, large fondant plaques, big logos). Share your target size or the cake tier diameter and we’ll recommend a perfect fit.
