I just bought a Wilton Fondant Ribbon Cutter with my weekly coupon but when I got it home and looked at it, well, it doesn't look "sharp". Than I read reviews on Amazon and became skeptical.
Questions:
DO you have one ?
Keep or return?
If I return it, what should I get instead?
it doesn't seem to cut, just smoosh lines. Return it. I tossed mine a long time ago. Half the time the wheels roll and half the time they don't, no matter how I adjust the pressure or the wingnut. I just use a knife and one of those metal yardsticks, or I'll just use my bench scraper. In my opinion, it overcomplicates a very simple process.
it will work if you cut on a hard surface like your counter and not the mat. Also the wing nut will either tighten as your roll or loosen itsself as you roll depending on which side you have it. Just remember to tighten it if its on the side that makes it loose. i thought using 2 washers would help but it doesn't, this is the only draw back on it.
I have one, it's not a super clean cut and the wing nut is either too loose or too tight. It loosens as I "cut" and never fails falls off when I need it most. Just use a pizza wheel. The cut is "cleaner".
I hated mine, what a waste of money for me....the flaw in the design is that the "far" end of the roller arm doesn't get enough pressure....return it!
BTW, another reason why I secretly hate Wilton brand (and yet have to use their products 'cause they have the cake supply market cornered in some areas)
Can someone PM me what the FMM is? I'd like to check that out. I've never gotten my wilton cutter to work...
Good grief - i think its great..
Roll my medium out -
allow it to firm for 5 minutes -
Apply a tad of pressure - and voula - perfectly sharp lines.
Problem is - many try to use it on a mat - which means when you apply pressure - the mat gives underneath...
also
many don't let their rolled fondant firm up for a few minutes.
Perhaps some have their rolled out fondant to thick - *shrugs*
