Etsy weekend shopping… Wood Elements carries “heirloom-quality” biscuit cutters. They are hand turned and finished with a mineral oil that is safe for contact with food. The biscuit cutter also works well for cutting a circle shape into cookie dough.
They are 3 inches high, with a 2 1/4 inch diameter. They are carved from cherry wood. Each cutter is handmade and one of a kind.
Cherry is abundant in North America which explains its notoriety defining such America styles as Shaker and Mission woodwork. Classic and rich, cherry is a yellow wood that deepens to a mahogany color when exposed to sunlight. Although it is a traditional wood, cherry offers a feeling of distinction with its wave-like grain and fine texture.

The biscuit cutters are also made in maple. These would make a great gift, especially for someone who is knew to baking, or as something to pass down to your kids someday.
