I need a new ribbon cutter. Preferably one that has the stitching detail in it and I need to find a decent one ASAP. Please send me any suggestions and, if you would be so kind, a picture of ribbon after you've used the cutter (you don't have to, but I'd really appreciate it).
I just received an order in the mail that I placed with a certain cake decorating supply company, who shall remain nameless and the doggone ribbon cutter sucks
! I need a new one before the 11th of April, so any help is appreciated!
I don't have any experience with them; but I googled "images" of "ribbon cutter" and could see several pictures of different ones. You can click on the image that looks like a good one and it also has the website it's from.
the wilton ribbon cutter is worthless, How thin of a ribbon do you need, I have used a herb cutter. It looks like the ped-egg thing but has little wheels in it. You are supposed to use it for chopping cilantro and leafy(sp) herbs. I found one that is about 3/8 inch apart at the grocery store. I love it. Best luck.
This is the one I have and I love it http://www.bakedeco.com/detail.asp?id=14195&trng=fgle I bought it after getting rid of the Wilton one.
I thought it was just me. I never have been able to get that stupid Wilton ribbon cutter to work. In fact, the last time I used it I think I ended up throwing it across the room.
The Ped egg idea for shaving fondant/chocolate is a great idea.
I like the FMM one. Kind of a "Huh?" When you first use it. (Lots of pieces to move about to get the width you want.) But I like it.

I bought the FMM last month at the Austin cake show and happily threw the Wilton one away!
I also use an herb mincer/cutter that I found at Winners although their stock is always different so not sure if they will always have it. I got mine for $10 CDN and it works like a charm but can only make straight cuts
but I still love it!
Oh btw, the ribbons on this cake were cut using it. There is only one width too...that's another down side to it but it is one I would use often so still a worthwhile tool and it saves time ![]()

Hey Tita and Pkink
I have a friend that I have lost touch with and the last time I talked to her, her parents were still in North Richland Hills. Wouldn't it be amazing if you knew them? Her parents last name is Klose.
My friends DH was a chef at a restaurant somewhere down there, but i'm not sure where.
Just thought it was worth a try that you might know them ![]()
TERI!! Where the heck have you been? We've missed you!
Thank you to everyone who has helped me in this. I'll find someone to give that stinking wilton one too or better yet, I can let the kiddos use it with their playdough.
I think I'm going to go for the FMM one, that's the one I was going to get originally anyway. I'll let you know how it works out. That herb mincer thing- I still can't picture it in my mind.
