I typically use a pizza cutter and a ruler to cut fondant ribbon. They aren't always uniform though so I was thinking about getting the Wilton ribbon cutter - but read bad reviews... so... are their any other tools that may be helpful or other things you do to make your ribbon?

I use an expandable cutter. It looks like a pizza cutter (wheel) times 6 - all attached. You simply space them however you want and cut multiple ribbons at a time. Do a google search. If you like it, and I can find mine, I'll give you one! You'll love it.

I use a Wilton fondant cutter and I have a favorite little paring knife that is really sharp and works well too!

I just bought one of these with 5 cutters attached. I have only used it once so far but it is AMAZING! Love love love!

I saw them selling online for about $30-$40, I found mine on ebay (not knowing it was from a cake supply place that's only about a 45 min drive from me) for just over $20 with free shipping.

I use a yardstick and a paring knife. Sometimes, if I need an odd width ribbon, I use the Wilton ribbon cutter.
