kitchengifts have so many cutters...I would love to have all of them, but they are $9.95 each and higher! I already have about 20 on my wish list! Many of them you don't find on any other site...such as the Nurse, hair brush, curling iron, perfume bottle cimputer, telephone....I WANT THEM ALL...I AM A COOKIE ADDICT!!!!

I hear ya, I LOVE their cutters but prices are a little steep for my pocket.

I think I need to win that lottery!!

If they would make them in the regular aluminum instead of copper they would be cheaper and they would probably sell more of them !

Most of my cutters are from kitchengifts.com. If you're a business you can get them at wholesale, which, if I remember correctly, is 50% off! I don't think they have a hard time selling them at all! I think they are the best quality cutters on the market and worth every penny! They don't "roll or bend" one side of the copper, creating a "lip" that's hard keep clean and germ free! The metal is heavy duty and so durable you can use either side of the cutter, which is awesome! I've also purchased many from http://www.thecookiecutterstore.com. Also very high quality, but they roll the edge of the copper on one side.....I don't prefer that....but they're a little less expensive than kitchengifts.com.

Good point Cambo. I think some states even have regulations against using the type that have the rolled edge. Would be important to know that. I do love the one copper cutter I have from them (kitchen gifts).

I just received my order from KitchenGifts and the quality is amazing. Very heavy and well made. I LOVE them! I held them side by side to my tin ones and they seemed down right flimsy compared to the KitchenGift cutters. Can't wait to use them.

No new cutters for me.....my hubbie already told me I'm getting a manicure and pedicure....maybe they can get the gel color stains out from under my nails! hee hee! Actually, manicures are never really a good thing since my hands are in water most of the day! But, it's relaxing!

I'm willing to pay $10 for a good quality cookie cutter but unfortunately they want $20 to ship 4 cutters to Canada. This bumps the price up to $15 per cutter and I just don't think I can justify that.

Ooohhh a manicure! I haven't had one of those in almost 5 years (when I got married). I don't even wear nail polish anymore. Ha!

MichelleM77--Those cookie cutters at Simon's are really neat! But you weren't kidding about the prices. icon_eek.gif I didn't think they made them that expensive--but it would be nice to have the lines as guides to follow when icing. . .

Do you remember what qualifications they have for wholesale customers? Can you get their "wholesale" price if you are a bakery or is that just for folks reselling their cutters. It doesn't say on their site.

So how do you even use those cutters? Is the center part designed so that the center parts only leave an impression on the cookie? Otherwise you will have little parts. Does that make sense? I really don't see why they are so much money. I see that there is a lot of work going into them, but even gold cutters wouldn't be that expensive. Sheesh.

These better be hand crafted in 24 k gold, while the man is naked using an arc welder and a jigsaw and they better cut the cookies all by them selves while I'm catching up on my beauty sleep for those insane prices... icon_biggrin.gif
