I had to look it up, they are for rolling out fondant and gumpaste and have grooves to help you make leaves quickly.
I got some butterfly gumpaste cutters/embossers from ebay - cheap! $3 for three sizes and they are great! I used them in my Memorial Day cupcake bouquet.

Since they came quickly and work well, I ordered some more cutters as well. They come from Hong Kong, so are super cheap price-wise, but seem to work just fine.
The newest things I ordered an am waiting on are rose leaf, sunflower, ivy leaves, round flowers, five petal hear flowers - all plunger cutter/embossers. And a set of tappit type alphabets. All for $20!

I buy a lot of things on Ebay from Hong Kong, all kinds of stuff, not just decorating things. Sometimes I buy from China too, but it's much quicker from Hong King. A lot of things are just $1 including shipping. I've gotten USB cords, rings, and kitchen timers.
PS your cupcakes look amazing.

Today I bought a 12 cup cupcake pan. I had a 40% off coupon for that. I also bought a 1M tip to frost cupcakes. The total was only $6.03
Just went to my favorite cake supply store today and bought black Satin Ice fondant, FMM rose leaf plunger/cutters, parchment triangles, silver and hot pink luster dust, black buttercream, shaker for powdered sugar, and pastry wheel/cutter. Spent way too much, but I always do.
I just bought more PME 1.5 tips. It's my favorite icing tip and can never have too many. :)
I just received a great pinecone mold from Jennifer Dontz. Tonight I'm making a batch of modeling chocolate to make some pinecones tomorrow. I hope they turn out as well as the example. They look absolutely real!

Duffs airbrush. I had a 50 % coupon and got for $75! Not sure how good of an airbrush it is, but for a starter I hope it will do fine. I sould say it was my hubby who bought it for me for Christmas, but I cant wait that long!
The Mat from SweetWise. I just tried on a cake for my daughter's Girl Scout holiday party. I had to do cover cake with MMF in a hurry, and it still turned out amazing! Best purchase! Wish I would have bought it sooner.
the_sweets_lady: I have the Duff airbrush. I like it for darker MMF colors so I don't ruin the MMF by adding too much color into it. Instead I spray on until I get the color I want. I haven't had the chance/need to do anything more detailed. I also ruined the needle when trying to clean it, so it was useless. But I contacted the manufacturer and they sent me a new one for free.
Thanks AmbitiousBeginner! Thats mostly what I was hoping to use it for. I really hate adding in so much color! Glad to hear the good customer service!
AI just bought some Sugarveil, a JEM petal pad, and because it was on sale, some magic sparkles, candy cane sprinkles and JEM snowflake cutters.
AI got a box from decopac. A bunch of extra rubber spatulas, icing spatulas, tips (#1,2,4, 103, and some big ones for cupcakes) and some 12" and 18" pastry bags, and couplers, diamond cutters (they aren't real diamonds, very disappointed) airbrush colors I was low on, and some gum paste flowers.
