I've used a toothpick to push them out, just make sure to poke close to the edge (if you don't you will end up with little dots or holes on your letters) and kinda go around lightly til it pops out icon_biggrin.gif hope that helps!

I tap the cutters in some confect sugar before cutting the letter out - and do that each time I cut a letter - HTH

UGH! I just went through the same thing! Awful!

I ended up trying both greasing the letters with Crisco and dipping the letters into cornstarch. Both worked okay but I think the cornstarch was a little neater.

Good luck.

I always dust cornstarch on the paste and cutters to make them release the cut pieces easier.

I have had this happen when doing 'pearls' also...I am now thinking a q-tip would work great...because it won't leave a hole!?!
