Christening sugared almonds have a flaw everyone knows about: half the guests put them straight back down on the table. Homemade cookies, on the other hand, always leave with someone.
A personalized cookie cutter stamps the child's first name into the dough itself, with nothing left to write in icing afterwards.
A gift for your guests
Slipped into a small bag at each place setting, these cookies make a christening keepsake the family baked itself. More personal than a box bought off a shelf, and a good deal cheaper.
Gentle shapes for a christening
- Kawaii animals, hedgehog, cat or hen, for the children in the room
- Dolphins and round shapes, more neutral for a table of adults
- A message cutter, to spell out the first name and the date
Something to get done the day before
The dough takes a few minutes to cut out and the cookies keep for several days in a tin. One thing ticked off before the big day, which has plenty of others.
Made in France, they are dishwasher safe and go on being useful long after the christening.
