Say It with Cookies

July 12th, 2010 @ 1:08 pm by Mrs. Starfish

I just purchased these awesome cookie cutters at Williams Sonoma in June. I saw them on the site awhile back, but they sold out, and recently became available again!

Say It with Cookies :  wedding favors gift ideas newport registry Dress  It’s kind of like embossing, but for cookies! If you’ve been following along, you may know how much I love embossing, as seen here, here, here, and here! The set includes three cutters, seven pre made words (Welcome, Happy, Birthday, Holidays, Thank You, From, I Love You), three sets of alphabet letters (plus extras of vowels and other commonly used letters).

I have big plans for this set and it has something to do with our guests, but since some of our guests read the blog, you’ll have to wait until after the wedding to see what we are doing with these!

Have you found any cool new gadgets you plan to use during your wedding planning?

So this may be a silly question but could you use these cutters with any other cookie type then basic sugar. I love the cutters but I am not really a fan of sugar cookies (not enough flavor).

I was e-stalking these too and bought them as soon as they were back in stock! I made a batch for our photographer as a thank you after our e-shoot.

Things to note:
- The dough making process takes a LOT longer than I’d anticipated. I’m not sure if they’d work as well with a different recipe though that isn’t their own and takes a shorter time, I haven’t tried yet. Their recipe takes the better part of the afternoon, though.
- You don’t have to press very hard to get the letters to go in at all. Otherwise, if you do press hard, the lines from where the letters are inserted show up, too.
- The letters can be quite difficult to slide into the little wracks sometimes. Don’t make these right after a manicure- you could end up chipping a nail.
- There are no numbers, only letters. It was fine.. but numbers would’ve been a nice addition, too.

The cookies themselves came out very cute and taste pretty good.. a bit bland and somewhat hard, but OK. Icing them definitely helps.
Have fun! Can’t wait to see what you do with them! I’d planned on making them for our welcome bags for for guests as they arrive, but after the dough making and then icing process (a whole different story) I’m not so sure anymore..
